Death Of A Friend Lyrics - Singles - Trapdoor Social

Thought you found the holy one 

They take a little, she takes none 

It's just a front after all 

Oh how easy do they fall? 

One by one over again 

They shed a little of their skin 

First you mingle, then you dance 

Pull it to a safe distance 

It pours outside and need a ride 

Wish you hadn't gone inside 

Fumble for the sidehand door 

You don't want to stay no more 

The handle is broke, the light is low 

Brake too late and off it goes 

Falling forward from the edge 

Try to remember the words you read 

Don't want to know 

You try too hard they said 

But you never want to go 

Are you feet cold? 

Spread your ashes all- 

All across the snow 

All the lights are shining through 

Hit you when you try to move 

Know the ending, know the start 

Know the place where it falls apart 

The Red herring isn't fooling you 

Tricket you last time, before you knew 

Barrelling towards the bitter end 

The climax comes, you lose a friend 

Growing up and dressing down 

Learn the truth and shut your mouth 

It's not all what your thought it'd be 

Cuts your heart so gradually 

Sew it up, snip the thread 

Dry the tears they make you shed 

Hold the chair, slip the noose 

Never forget who cut you loose 

Don't want to know 

You try too hard they said 

But you never want to go 

Are you feet cold? 

Spread your ashes all- 

All across the snow 

Confidence dies 

A little everyday 

You lose your way 

I lose it too 

I wish I was back 

Safe inside instead 

But i'm at a funeral for a friend 

Don't want to know 

You try too hard they said 

But you never want to go 

Are you feet cold? 

Spread your ashes all- 

All across the snow
