lyrics

He, he was a friend of mine
He, he was a friend of mine
Poison in his blood stream, it drove him over the line
But he was a friend of mine, now he’s dead and gone

He never did fit in
He was like my shadow twin
Where I was weak and striving for light, he was pure and drawn into sin
But he was a friend of mine, now he’s dead and gone

He was a shattered soul
He’d be the first to let you know
Smart enough to know better, but lost and out of control
But he was a friend of mine, now he’s dead and gone

He never left my mind
No he wasn’t the forgettable kind
For years I looked into every stranger’s face, but he wasn’t anywhere to find
But he was a friend of mine, now he’s dead and gone

He was living on borrowed time
Maybe I could’ve helped him if I really tried
Don’t matter if it was accident or if it was suicide
He was a friend of mine, now he’s dead and gone

He will ever be eighteen
He won’t be remembered as the dying man that I seen
I say it out of love, it ain’t judgment that I mean
But he was a friend of mine, now he’s dead and gone
