I have a friend
I used to love her
and I don't care
if spite pulls me under
Got knives in my mind
needs resolution
hangs over my days
with no evolution
And clear skies would be fine
someone give me wisdom
some piece of advice
I'm willing to listen
Old man on the porch
give me your support
but your mouth's become empty
and your life seems so short
You've been constant confusion
and we have been an illusion
and all this time was I deluded
do you do this on purpose?
And I know now what I didn't know then
you knew all along well just how it had been
and it doesn't feel so bad my friend
I can afford to end, I can afford to end
So I smile and I wave as I step to the edge
said here's to the world and then jumped off the ledge
and fell twenty stories straight down to the canyon floor
I'll never go back to where I was kept before
The fall of man is just a plan
and everyone knows where I stand
The fall of man is just a plan
and everyone knows where I stand
