Dead Friend by Roadkill Ghost Choir Lyrics

Are you looking for that good life
With the dawn all in your eyes
A cigarette to keep you quiet
When the lightning strikes twice
Meditate upon that turning earth
And the voices on the screen
All the doubters and the fixers grin
As if they've seen things we won't see

And at any moment
I could escape
With a line to sell it
And feel nothing
If I was someone else

I could've loved you babe
But I'm always in the wrong place at the wrong time
Where I'll end up I can't say
Always just two steps behind
Everybody forgets my name
I can't look my friends in their eyes
Spitting up dumb luck in time
To slip between both sides
And at any moment
I could escape
With a line to sell it
And feel nothing
If I was someone else

You could be my shadow
I was born to wave farewell
Are you waiting for me like I dreamt where the lightening twice fell
There's no meaning to the words left on the lips of an old dead friend
Sputter out kick the derelict mind that I've lost again
That I've lost again
I've lost

In the morning when you left with the sun on the run
With your head in your hands crying "God I am not the one I am not the one"
I was bound like a dog I felt it all
Felt it all
You didn't feel a thing
