New Friend Lyrics by Fintan Stack

0

You were a new friend, when I thought I was running out time
You lent your favourite book, the one you'd scribbled all the lines in
We spent a few nights, sat drinking at "that bar" and talking about how we thought everyone round here was fucking weird

You were a new friend, stood crying at the bar, you taught me your favourite songs, the ones, I've forgotten all the lines to
We spent a few nights, sat smoking in my car and talking about how we thought everyone round was gonna choke us

And the only way to escape, is to leave the people we hated

And I'm sorry, you never got where you wanted to be, 'cos you truly deserve it, it's never too late, to move on from that place that brings you down and I know you can make it out, I know you can make it out

It's funny how you said you always wanted to move away, how you'd never settle down, how you'd never get so boring, it still hurts me now the way that things turned out, you gave up on your hopes and dreams to anyone who'd listen

And the only way to escape, is to leave the people we hated

And I'm sorry, you never got where you wanted to be, 'cos you truly deserve it, it's never too late, to move on from that place that brings you down and I know you can make it out, I know you can make it out

If I saw you now, I don't think we'd talk for long, 'cos things aren't the same anymore, I finally found somewhere I belong, and you're still back there, oh you're back, oh you're back there, singing the same old song

Woah

If I saw you now, I don't think we'd talk for long, 'cos things aren't the same anymore, I finally found somewhere I belong, and you're still back there, singing the same old song


(And I'm sorry, you never got where you wanted to be, 'cos you truly deserve it, it's never too late, to move on from that place that brings you down and I know you can make it out, I know you can make it out)
