Everyone’s different, I’m the same, I don’t want to play the game
Thoughts keep running through my head, hoping you won’t end up dead
You say this life isn’t for sure and act like it is a chore
But you’re a train on broken track, I need my friend so please come back
Don’t leave me here all alone cause I can’t make it on my own
I refuse to play the game, it changed my friend you’re not the same
Looking for a constant thrill, you will not make it up the hill
Waiting for a brand new day to once again throw it away
You already know what’s on my mind and act like I’m a waste of time
Can’t you see that I’m your friend, but you’re pushing for that to end
Eight long years have been so great, I’d had to end it on this date
I need a friend without the lies, please won’t you open your eyes
