Circa Survive - My Only Friend lyrics

Let fall upon his back
The consequence of giving
Up all that he has had to anyone who listens
In hopes that you'll let him in
Pull back the curtains and tied at the edge
Cover the harmless in all the sheep's skin
I know who you are

He won't see your hand reaching out for him
Never understand
How you've been waiting so long
I know, no one, ever
Gets to control your love
So why follow anyone?

Every word he says is a lie
No one ever knows the difference
Now he needs to prove it to himself
To anyone to anyone who listens
In hopes that you will relieve
Pull out your wallet and show sympathy


Tell him he's everything you wished you'd be
You know who you are (You know who you are)

He won't see your hand reaching out for him
Never understand
How you've been waiting so long
I know, no one, ever
Gets to control your love
So why follow anyone?

Why follow anyone?

He won't see your hand reaching out for him
Never understand
Have you been waiting so long?
I know, no one, ever
Gets to control your love
He won't understand
Have you been waiting for him?
Why follow anyone?
