Friendly Fire

[Verse 1]

Leave me out in misery

Your hands around my neck

Tie me to the old oak tree

I need a place to rest

[Chorus]

Would you mind if I lied?

I don't suppose you know that I tried?

So I smiled, waved goodbye

I told you not to worry

Let's pretend it's only friendly fire

It's friendly fire

Ooh, oh-oh

[Verse 2]

Leave me out a melody

Pin it to my bones

Send me out on the raging sea

I need to be alone

[Chorus]

If I smiled, waved goodbye

And told you not to worry

Let's pretend it's only friendly fire

It's friеndly fire

Ooh, oh-oh

[Bridge]

'Cause your words are likе medicine

I'm not letting them back in

There's nowhere I'd rather be when you're lying here with me

[Chorus]

Would you mind if I lied?

I don't suppose you know that I tried?

So I smiled, waved goodbye

And told you not to worry

Let's pretend it's only friendly fire

It's friendly fire

Ooh, oh-oh

It's friendly fire

[Outro]

Leave an hour if you please

I want to hold your hand

Tell me how it's meant to be

I need to understand
