Lyrics Biffy Clyro

Biffy Clyro

Friends and Enemies

I see a choir coming down the hill

They're singing devil songs

A welded, twisted melody

They don't ask but still they come around

They see that you're not wanted

I don't want you to ruin it

They had eyes like a backwards sunset

A golden curve

They gave me armbands made of concrete

I have to swim, I have to swim

Cause you were not right

You were just righteous

With a friend as good as you, who needs enemies?

I guess we all make mistakes

I took a road I didn't recognise

And waited for a call to

Help me get her stabilised

I nursed her and then she came around

I prefer her conscious

Than dreams within a dream

Her eyes were described as deep set cigarette burns

Please keep me in the right context

I have to learn, I have to learn

Cause you were not right

You were just righteous

With a friend as good as you, who needs enemies?

Was it that bad?

(Let me tell you 'bout the truth in us)

Am I really that venomous?

(Let me tell you 'bout the world)

With a friend as good as you, who needs enemies?

I guess we all make mistakes

And time is gonna tell

Or maybe it never will

Friends as good as you, friends as good as you

Friends as good as you, friends as good as you

Friends as good as you, (let me tell you 'bout the truth in us)

friends as good as you, (let me tell you 'bout the world)

Friends as good as you, (let me tell you 'bout the truth in us)

friends as good as you

Cause you were not right

You were just righteous

With a friend as good as you, who needs enemies?

Was it that bad?

(Let me tell you 'bout the truth in us)

Am I really that venomous?

(Let me tell you 'bout the world)

With a friend as good as you, who needs enemies?

With a friend as good as you, who needs enemies?

I guess we all make mistakes

But we're growing

But we're growing

But we're growing

But we're growing
