Absent Friends Lyrics by The Orwells

Friendly Fire

0

[Verse 1]
Stay in the light
I'm a victim of the night
Got caught in the sights
Of a victim of the night
[Chorus]
You're right
I'll try
Don't say you'll stay
I broke my back
Just to get your name
You're not like us
I shouldn't say
You'll lose my trust
And meet your fate
[Verse 2]
Never again shall I wait on a friend
I can shake on the hand
It's a shame you're a friend
Stay in the light
I'm a victim of the night
Got caught in the sights
You're a victim of the night
Caught up
Calm down
We can see you'll
Bite your tongue 'til you can't feel
Take the risk and spin the wheel
Nod your head and make a deal
[Chorus]
You're right
I'll try
Don't say you'll stay
I broke my back
Just to get your name
You're not like us
I shouldn't say
You'll lose my trust
And meet your fate
