I'll Be Your Friend

Bright Eyes

7

You said they laid out lots of coke

But you don't know how much you did

Now you don't want me to go home

Because you're afraid you might get sick

Just like the bad news you accept

Just like that boy you're gonna get

It's all just drunken promises

I'll be your friend but you just haven't made me yet

So you come chasing after me

But I'm just barely out the door

Down in the belly of the beast

We waited with the passengers

Just like that train I gotta catch

Just like that song I can't finish

It's the mistake I won't regret

You'll be my friend but I just haven't made you yet

You will be my friend but i just haven't made you yet

You talk like you're drunk

Like you're standing in front of a micophone

And each night it repeats and you fall into me

Like a domino

And you talk when you're drunk

Like you're writing it up for an article

And you think that I lie when I tell you goodbye

And then I've got to go... 'cause I've got to go.

But I guess it's a success

We're at our best when you're upset

I'll be your friend but you just haven't made me yet
