Best Friends

it's taking longer than I thought it would from Timbuktu to Hollywood disquietude and fear of letting go I caught him running through the ghetto with short blonde hair and a cocaine stare in the corner there yeah his lips were white like snow best friends are girlfriends with much thicker skin and your friends ain't my friends don't know where they've been and I've had more friends than I've had girlfriends and I've lost much more as well I burnt all of my bridges and I built a wall smoked a cigarette at the beggar's ball maybe there's a gateway after all I was curled up in my hotel room when I thought of you with another dude the world was mine it was ninety nine and the party was alright best friends are girlfriends with much thicker skin and your friends ain't my friends don't know where they've been and I've had more friends than I've had girlfriends and I've lost much more as well lay back lay back won't you carry me home won't you carry me lay back lay back lay back on your rocking chair and watch the world collapse best friends are girlfriends with much thicker skin and your friends ain't my friends don't know where they've been and I've had more friends then I've had girlfriends and I've lost much more as well lay back lay back won't you carry me home won't you carry me lay back lay back lay back on your rocking chair and watch the world collapse
