Dear Friend - Tyler Slemp - Original

This is a song I've been working on recently, hope you like it.
:D

I'll post lyrics soon.

{Dear Friend}
These clashing chords are gang banged by silence and I refuse to let it win
Cuz Ive got words to say, Ive got songs to play and for too long Ive held them in
This dishonesty is killing me, I cant do this anymore
Youve auctioned your dreams or so it seems to the highest bid on the floor

And I know you wish you could
Go back to the way things should

And its not too late my friend
To be happy once again
And feel like you are home
In your own skin

You were so elegant, and I was the elephant that stumbled into the room
You were patient with me, to every degree and Id hoped to see you soon
But you went off to school, and broke all the rules you said you never would
Now your passion and soul, lies dead on the floor made of hard oak wood

And your shoes dangle from the wall
Have you even glanced towards them at all

And its not too late my friend
To be happy once again
And feel like you are home
In your own skin

They tell us that we should grow up
Drop our dreams and find a normal job
Because misery pays the bills
And every problem can be solved
With the exception of a broken heart
If you have the right amount of pills
Well I refuse the live that way
That will never be my day-to-day

And its not too late my friend
To be happy once again
And feel like you are home
In your own skin

So I clicked on this because I thought the tag of "I wonder how many tags they'll let me do" was pretty funny...So i cam in with really low expectations...but wow man this was great, keep it up
