Voice of a Friend

[Verse 1]
Light the fire in this castle
And watch it burn into a glow
By the river fear of quite sincere
There's a draw bridge life support
And there's a plank we'll have to crawl upon
But dare not look below
Where the water scene is crystal clean
And the clouds are raining snow

[Pre-Chorus]
So
Hush hush baby
There's a lot of other ways to choke
We're in the freak show now
And we're dealing with a mind of its own
When too many worlds collide
I'd like to think it would be good if we talked
I ask you to not leave my side
I can't, man
This is quicksand alone

[Chorus]
So I ask you through the voice of a friend (Drugs)
"Why don't you stay with me?"
Through the voice of a friend
"And why don't you stay?"

[Verse 2]
We're a submarine submerging
Yeah, we're simply smiling at the earth
We're sending roses to the loved ones
Who had a hand in our rebirth
But still another day I'll cling to you
For faint directions home
Where we all will sit with open arms
To try to block the rocks we've thrown

[Pre-Chorus]
So
Hush hush baby
There's a lot of other ways to choke
We're in the freak show now
And we're dealing with a mind of its own
When too many worlds collide
I'd like to think it would be good if we talked
I ask you to not leave my side
I can't, man
This is quicksand alone
When too many worlds collide
I'd like to think it would be good if we talk
I ask you to not leave my side
Don't leave my side at all

[Chorus]
I ask you through the voice of a friend (Drugs)
"Why don't you stay with me?"
Through the voice of a friend
"Why don't you stay?
Yeah stay with me."

[Bridge]
Oh oh oh oh oh (x2)
Oh oh oh

Oh oh oh oh oh (x3)
Oh

[Chorus]
Trough the voice of a friend (Drugs)
"Why don't you stay with me?"
Through the voice of a friend
"Why don't you stay with me?"

[Outro]
Oh (Drugs)
Please why don't you stay with me?
God, you're my voice of a friend!
So why don't you stay?
With me (x2)
