My Friend

Hanging with killers
And pushing weight
Meeting your deadlines
A little too late
You're chasing the dream
But it's not what it seems
Is it now?

Placing your bets
On someone else's dime
Can't answer your phone
When it's deal-making time
You just drop off the face
When you've nothing to show
Well for someone like you
I guess that's how it goes

Can I ask you one question, my friend?
What does it mean in the end?

Lost all your friends
For no reason at all
It never would have happened
If you'd just made a call
Now you're sitting alone
Staring at your phone
On the table

You started the game
And made it to the top
But your ego got hold of you
And knocked you right off
Sour taste in your mouth
Stench in your nose
Well for someone like you
I guess that's how it goes

Can I ask you one question, my friend?
What does it mean in the end?

Can I ask you one question, my friend?
What does it mean in the end?

It's too late to change your mind
Or turn back the hands of time
