Stand By Me For The Millionth Time - Funeral For A Friend

I’ve seen youth falter

at the last

fucking hurdle

resentment

of a homewrecker

resentment

froma homewrecker

and i don’t need your sympathy

I know what you did

to me

I know what you did

I know what you did

to me

For a change I

would like more

more tattoos

For a change I

could like myself

cover up my flaws

wrap me in plastic

send me

off downstream

The midtown rush

and I’m stuck in line

waiting for a sign

passing off metaphors

as conversation

down some shitty

fucking phone line

And I can’t think of a better place to be

when I can’t think of a better place to be

when I can’t think of a better place to be

I wish I could be

a better me

for a change I

would like more

more tattoos

for a change I

could like myself

cover

up my flaws

wrap me in plastic

send me

off downstream

I’ve sat and watched stand by me

for the millionth time

It’s a lifeline

I wish I was

Chris Chambers

but in truth

I’m more like vern

I’ve sat and watched stand by me

for the millionth time

It’s a lifeline

I wish I was

Chris Chambers

but in truth

I’m more like vern

And I’m okay with that

And I’m okay with that

For a change I

would like more

more tattoos

For a change I

could like myself

cover

up my flaws

wrap me

in plastic

send me

off downstream
