Lyrics Old Friends - Eldest 11

Old Friends

Cover me with your claws
Make me strong
They intend to do me harm
Preserve butterfly
Kissing the mouth
A thicket of new veins
Comfortable in sin
Unnoticed but necessary
You are my friends
The Wicked Winds, OHHH.
Gods of drugged sleep
Every lock has a key
Hello Monsters…(In the darkness)
It’s good to see you my old friends
(You've healed me.)
(Holding up their end, tying up my loose ends)
Hello Monsters…(In the darkness)
It’s good to see you my old friends
Wrap your arms around me
I WILL SURVIVE
LIARS… MONSTERS…FAKE FRIENDS… LOOSE ENDS
I don’t care what it costs
Make me strong
They welcome me with open arms
I’m learning to fly
I smell like something died
I’ve been burned once or twice
Inheriting scaled skin
It’s unnoticed but necessary
When you hear your name called
But you’re too scared to open your eyes and see what’s wrong
Because you’re afraid
Every lock has a key
Hello Monsters…(In the darkness)
It’s good to see you my old friends
(You've healed me.)
(Holding up their end, tying up my loose ends)
Hello Monsters…(In the darkness)
It’s good to see you my old friends
Wrap your arms around me
MAKE ME MUTATE…
So I won’t feel anything
Help me mutate
So I won’t feel anything
I long for days gone by
I lie awake at night
Let my empathy sleep
Wrap your claws around me
Help me mutate
So I won’t feel anything
(Help me sleep. Help me sleep)
I long for days gone by
(I'm all twisted up inside as day fades into night)
I lie awake at night
Let my empathy sleep.
Wrap your claws around me.
(MAKE ME MUTATE)
Help me mutate
So I won’t feel anything
I long for days gone by
I lie awake at night
Let my empathy sleep.
Wrap your claws around me
