Lyrics

My friend went home today
from a place so far away
now their light forever shines

you were tough i must admit
there were times i wanted to quit
but like they say, life goes on

so many years were they enough?
sometimes it felt like you didn't
show up
I took a stand and called your bluff

I try to make some sense of it all
but sometines life can feel so small
you can't wait till it's gone
you gotta take life on
Take life on

on many nights i have this dream
about some crazy music scene
me and my friend play on till dawn
we always tried to live
all the music that we had to give
and be ourselves, in our own skin


we always saw a ray of hope
or our dreams would go up in smoke
and somehow found a way to cope

I try to make some sense of it all
but sometines life can feel so small
you can't wait till it's gone
you gotta take life on
Take life on

sometimes I think about the end of time
that place where light forever shines
today, my friend, had to go
I look out my window every day
i'm looking out at the empty bay
The water's smooth but my friend won't
row by

I try to make some sense of it all
but sometines life can feel so small
you can't wait till it's gone
you gotta take life on
Take life on
