Well, you're my friend, (that's what you told me)
And can you see (what's inside of me)
Many times we've been out drinking
And many times we've shared our thoughts
But did you ever, ever notice, the kind of thoughts I got
Well you know I have a love, a love for everyone I know
And you know I have a drive to live I won't let go
But can you see it's opposition, comes arising up sometimes
That it's dreadful antiposition, comes blacking in my mind

And then I see a darkness
And then I see a darkness
And then I see a darkness
And then I see a darkness
And did you know how much I love you
Is a hope that somehow you, you
Can save me from this darkness

Well I hope that someday buddy
We have peace in our lives
Together or apart
Alone or with our wives
And we can stop our whoring
And pull the smiles inside
And light it up forever
And never go to sleep
My best unbeaten brother
This isn't all I see

Oh no, I see a darkness
Oh no, I see a darkness
Oh no, I see a darkness
Oh no, I see a darkness
And did you know how much I love you
Is a hope that somehow you, you
Can save me from this darkness

  • I don't know what I'm supposed to say, so I'll just sit and feel until the feelings go.

  • 'How far away now is all that lightness

    And all that innocence! Ah, backwards yet,

    From black winter fled, to the Springtime of regret,

    From my disgust, my boredom, my distress.' -Paul Verlaine

  • @kutjob oh shut up....

  • This is song is for my girlfriend who was also my best friend

  • Alot of people think this song depressing, I find it oddly life affirming....That's kind of how I feel about the whole album. It's dark but there's a resilient strength to it as well.
