“Long Time Friends” is the 6th song on The Living Tombstone’s album “zero_one”. It is about corrupt relationships and friendships with others and Skull Guy would rather be alone than deal with them.
His friends make him very angry, which is slowly poisoning him into a state of anger, happiness, and...
[Verse 1: Sam Haft]
Another little abuse, another pointless excuse
Another joke that's not to laugh at
Another day feeling like I don't belong
I really don't belong
So I end another day feeling totally betrayed
Say hello to anger, did you miss me?
I know it so well like a long-time friend
Who smiles while poisoning me
[Pre-Chorus: Sam Haft]
And I don't know if they still love me
And I don't know if they still care
But all I really know is I am sorry
I let you let me grow so unprepared
I'm pulling at the root to tear you off me
To see if I'll have something left
And even if it means I'm starting over
And everything I made with you means nothing
Well that doesn't matter
[Chorus: Sam Haft]
I'm alone and I'm free
'Cause there's nothing really wrong with me
And I know it doesn't matter
No matter what they tell me
Done living for someone else's time
On someone else's dime
So I'm drawing my line in the sand
'Cause I know it doesn't matter
[Verse 2: Sam Haft]
Another thing to remake, another patient mistake
Another self-humiliation
A better day, happy that I won't belong
Does anyone belong?
So I end a lonely day feeling totally okay
Wave goodbye to anger, will you miss me?
I knew it so well like a long-time friend
We'll never be friends again
[Pre-Chorus: Sam Haft]
I don't really know if they still love me
And I don't know if they still care
But all I really know is I'm not sorry
'Cause I am on my own with no one there
To make me feel alone when they are with me
It sounds insane, but au contraire
I'm cutting off the parts that kill the body
Because they never played me fair and square
And I feel fucking awesome
[Chorus: Sam Haft]
I'm alone and I'm free
'Cause there's nothing really wrong with me
And I know it doesn't matter
No matter what they tell me
Done living for someone else's time
On someone else's dime
So I'm drawing my line in the sand
'Cause I know it doesn't matter
[Instrumental Break]
[Bridge: Sam Haft]
I don't really think about your love now
And I don't think that I still care
I know, without a doubt, if you could see me
I would ruin your week, your month, your year
'Cause you don't have a victim you can poison
So now the poison's all you have
I'm living a new life and don't regret it
And you just have the memory, bet you'll never forget it
Because now
[Chorus: Sam Haft]
I'm alone and I'm free
'Cause there's nothing really wrong with me
And I know it doesn't matter
No matter what they tell me
Done living for someone else's time
On someone else's dime
So I'm drawing my line in the sand
'Cause I know it doesn't matter
[Post-Chorus: Sam Haft]
(Do they even know what love is?)
Yeah, I know it doesn't matter
(Are they growing tired of this?)
Yeah, I know it doesn't matter
(On my own, I'll float above this)
[Outro: Sam Haft]
And I don't really know
