I've found me some friends and been awake all week

And I remember all the faces and the chases we had

All the fights at night, the blacks and whites, the bluff from the step
VERSE4
F#m

I take a look at my reflection and it don't look pleased

I tell myself I'm precious then I jump to please

Oh, your face will tell your frame is frail when you're lookin' dead

Come with me'
