If I never had to hear your voice
Or let you down
Well it'd be an easy choice
To not come back around
Again
My old friend
Again
My old friend

It's no surprise
That I got out
And put right back again
Blinded by the light
I had to find my way again
Again
My old friend
Again
My old friend

And it turns out
I've had more than I can take
Guess I need a place
To let my own heartbreak
So break me down
And take me in
I'm here to die
And be born again

Heaven is a lone ghost town
A refuge from the pain
And when the sun goes down
We'll all aboard the righteous train
Again
My old friend
Again
My old friend

And it turns out
I've had more than I can take
Guess I need a place
To live my own heartbreaks
So break me down
And take me in
I'm here to die
And be born again

If I never had to hear your voice
Or let you down
It'd be an easy choice
To not come back around
Again
My old friend
Yeah again
My old friend
