Charlie Don't Surf Lyrics - Funeral For A Friend

Called the house to see if anyone was home 

Question the silences, the negative response 

Stayed to see the sunrise raising hell over the square 

Didn't lose the sense of promise laced upon the air 

Education was a simple learning curve 

Ruined by the lack of anything to use 

Of knowing what to say and what to lock away 

Pay attention for detention's here to stay 

It took so long to find all the answers through the lies 

It's been so long that I don't know if it's alright 

Problematic interest never fails to impress 

Score cards for everyone, you wear them out to dress 

Badge of honor, true to code and true to form 

Buried underneath all these expectations 

If there was any kind of picture that I could paint for you 

I bet you any money that the numbers wouldn't stick for all I know 

I'll take some credit for myself if I can 

And walk away from this whole scene a happier man 

It took so long to find all the answers through the lies 

It's been so long that I don't know if it's alright 

It's alright, it's alright, it's alright, it's alright, it's alright 

It took so long to wait until the end
