Best Friends

It's a long road (harder every step)
A cold wind that gets in your bones
(with every breath you take)
But you're stronger (stronger every step)
The further on you go (got to carry on)

Thought I knew you
(thought you were a friend)
But can't even say I know me
(am I a friend to me?)
That sorry shadow I
(might need a helping hand)
Could turn out to be
(am I a friend to me?)

Sometimes I cannot
Just can't understand where my head is at
Or what my heart is saying

All throughout my struggle
Sometimes I feel
I can't shake my habit
I just can't break out

But I know in the end
I'll beat the chill
'Cause the road will go on
With me or without

Making no
Compromise
Fighting for
A better life

It's a long road (harder every step)
But friends keep you on a good path
(sharing the fate you make)
Take a wrong turn (friends or not, we'll see)
And they'll be on your back
(if they're friends, they'll be)

Calling you out (strict accountant style)
As ice-cold as gales on the road
(and hungry as a pack of wolves)
We keep each other stronger
(sometimes we got to fight)
Going toe to toe (put yourself to the test)

And we may not know
If we'll come out of this alive or not
But we just have to break through

Sure I know just like me
You have your doubts
Can you keep to the straight and narrow, live life?

Better every minute
And do without
Your dark shadow, let them go
Set yourself free

What we've learned
What we know
We're here for those
Out here alone

Making no compromise

Fighting for our friend's life
