MARTHA WAINWRIGHT - So Many Friends lyrics

rate me

And the children's eyes they turn

As I walk away

I am becoming their prey

And the firelight it burns in your eyes

There are times you despise me

Oh you criticize me

I have lost so many friends

I have gained so many memories

I can change the colors of the night

The hum and the drum they sound the same

When you're tapping the same vein

And I have noticed lately that the time that you took

To look at my face has gone without a trace

Oh you despise me

I have lost so many friends

I have gained so many memories

I have lost so many friends

I have gained so many, so many enemies

Over the years things disappear

But once in a while you call my name

In you you've got the loving touch

I live and breath for the rush

Oh when we touch, oh there's a rush

When we touch

I have lost so many friends

I have gained so many memories

I have lost so many friends

I have gained so many, so many

So many, so many enemies
