Paroles: Darlene Zschech. Other. Your Friends Will Forgive You.


i don't want to fall asleep tonight

out of fear that you might not be here when the morning comes

i don't want to have to wake up and find

all the things you said to me tonight were just sweat lies



so live the life you fake

and make all your mistakes

the friends that you forsake will forgive you

for each lie that you make

and each heart that your break

each love you gave away will remind you



i don't want to fall in love tonight

out of fear that you won't care for me in the morning light

i don't want to have to wake and find

you've already moved on and left me far behind



and it's probably just the chemicals

but i've never felt so cynical

and it's probably just this social scene

but i've never seen such posturing

and i've never felt so alone in a crowded room

i've never felt so alone standing next to you

everybody's given up on dreams

so they make due with the next best thing



so live the life you hate

and make all your mistakes

all the friends that you forsake will forgive you

for each like that you make

and each felling you fake

each love you gave away will remind you

and you pawn it off on fate

cause it's more than you can take

your touch annihalates

each person that you meet

and at night we lay awake

to keep the dreams at bay

our nightmares will convey

the secrets that we keep
