And again, The band plays to till the end, Again the clowns make you laugh, Till you start crying, And then it's the end.... Friends. Where I've been I can't go, Where I grew I left my leaves, I left the ground brown and tore hearts, I started a lie and left a truth, To burn in my place.... Friends. And I'm going to the moon, In Sunday church, Never leaving anything behind, I'm shaking hands with the paupers, And sleeping in the gutter..... Friends. I'm play my song till the end, Till the man brings me in, Take my dollars from my guitar case, And take the bread from my oven, I cry and then I miss my.... Friends.
