old friends - nathan reich lyrics
[verse 1]
the house on the corner’s
been abandoned by a family of three
the windows boarded up
i know there’s nothing left inside to see
sometimes when i p-ss
i think about the way i used to be
the shadow of my past
don’t mean much to anyone but me
[pre-chorus 1]
and you don’t
have to burn out
like words
fade out from the crowd
old friends
don’t come around
like roots
pulled from the ground
[chorus]
i hate it when i waste it
so wasted
i made it
[verse 2]
waiting for the light to change
windshield becomes a movie screen
so many people cross
like lucky pennies lost down the street
if you think you have no friends
then i guess that’s the way it will be
you don’t belong to anyone
but god i wish that you belonged to me
[pre-chorus 2]
and words fade from the crowd
too far
to hear them now
old friends
don’t come around
i’ll learn
to live without
[chorus]
i hate it when i waste it
so wasted
i made it
[bridge]
the most fascinating problem in the world is “who am i?”
what do you mean
what do you feel
when you say the word “i”
that’s so mysterious
and so elusive?
what you are in your innermost being
escapes your examination
in rather the same way that you can’t look directly into your own eyes without using a mirror
you can’t bite your own teeth
you can’t taste your own tongue
and you can’t touch the tip of this finger with the tip of this finger
and that’s why there’s always always an element of profound mystery in the problem of who we are
[verse 3]
the house on the corner’s
been abandoned by a family of three
i know there’s nothing left inside
but something in me still wants to see
maybe it’s the thought
that i don’t know how i’ll turn out to be
whatever came for them
will one day be there waiting for me
