Friends and Foes by Elliotly Lyrics
[Verse]
I could set my golden bed on fire
Sell myself to devilish types
Give in till my head explodes
From the blood stuck in the pipes
Everyone, am I pretty?
Handsome hands on collarbones
A thousand boys better than me
All boys with fewer unknowns
[Chorus]
Friends and foes, I’m sub-par
Look away, whoever you are
Friends and foes, give me time
And I swear it will be fine
Friends and foes, have I changed?
Or do I just havе the range
Friends and foеs, give me peace
Or at least some sort of release
But it must be the distance, yeah
Oh God, it must be the distance
[Verse]
Rest assured I’m sorted out
The girls and i recognized what’s not true
And if I kissed every handsome person
I’d only be kissing you
But hear me out, I’m nauseated
Watch the lover regurgitate
Snakes in knots under my throat
Can I sleep the days away?
[Chorus]
Friends and foes, I’m sub-par
Look away, whoever you are
Friends and foes, give me time
And I swear it will be fine
Friends and foes, have I changed?
Or do I just have the range
Friends and foes, grant me peace
Or at least some sort of release
But it must be the distance, yeah
Oh God, it must be the distance
[Bridge]
To think a year ago apathy was my pride
It’s so much easier when you believe you can’t care
To think a year ago they’d bury me in a tie
It’s so much easier when you know what to wear
I’d have been kind if I liked what I claimed to
To be fair and mean, I also didn’t know
I’d have been less mean if I had stayed a friend
Or maybe I’d get bored and then I’d go
So sorry that I’m incomplete
Please give me some time
And maybe a kiss or two
Though anything would be fine
But God damnit it’s the distance
[Chorus]
Friends and foes, tie the knot
Blindfolds are all that we’ve got
Friends and foes, you can’t see
But I’m dressed so handsomely
Friends and foes, have I changed?
Or do I just have the range
Friends and foes, grant me peace
Or at least some sort of release
Friends and foes, tie the knot
Blindfolds are all that we’ve got
Friends and foes, you can’t see
But I’m dressed so handsomely
Friends and foes, have I changed?
Or do I just have the range
Friends and foes, grant me peace
Or at least some sort of release
[Outro]
Draw me in a wooden suit
Make it a coffin
Draw me all the carriages
We would go off in
Draw me in a floral skirt
Trapped in lace like tar
Don’t mourn me, i’ll run away
Would i make it far?
Friends and foes, tie the knot
Blindfolds are all that we’ve got
Friends and foes, you can’t see
But I’m dressed so handsomely
Friends and foes, have I changed?
Or do I just have the range?
Draw me in a wooden dress
Make it a coffin
Draw me all the carriages
We would go off in
Draw me in a pair of shorts
Fastened with a star
I'll run to you if you want
Or are you too far
I could set my golden bed on fire
Sell myself to devilish types
Give in till my head explodes
From the blood stuck in the pipes
Everyone, am I pretty?
Handsome hands on collarbones
A thousand boys better than me
All boys with fewer unknowns
[Chorus]
Friends and foes, I’m sub-par
Look away, whoever you are
Friends and foes, give me time
And I swear it will be fine
Friends and foes, have I changed?
Or do I just havе the range
Friends and foеs, give me peace
Or at least some sort of release

Oh God, it must be the distance
