Gonna See My Friend lyrics

Do you want to hear something sad?

We are but victims of desire

I'm going to shake this day

I want to shake this day before I retire

I'm going to see my friend

I'm going to see my friend, make it go away

I'm sick of everything

I'm going to see my friend, make it go away

Well I said I... I won't be long before we all walk off the wire

Well I'm going to see my friend, I'm gonna see my friend for what I require

Well I said I will come in quick

Don't want my flame to get no higher

I'm going to see my friend

I'm going to see my friend, make it go away

I'm sick of everything

I'm going to see my friend, make it go away

Want to leave it all

Want to give it up

Want to see it go once and for all

Want to view it cho

Want a little bit home

Want to be there

Hard as a statue, black as a tattoo, never to wash away

Going to take me an astral plane

I'm going to tunnel through denial

But I'm going to shake this day

I want to shake this day before I retire

I'm going to see my friend

I'm going to see my friend, make it go away

I'm sick of everything

I'm going to see my friend, make it go away
