To A Friend
[Verse 1: George Pettit]
I'm thinking that it's time to get out, my patients are fading fast
The mind bruises just a little bit easier in dark times and shadow's cast

[Verse 2: Dallas Green]
What are you suffering for?
Your pride or some kind of personal war?
And will you throw it away
For nothing more than a simple taste?

[Chorus: Dallas Green & (George Pettit)]
I stay in time and watch you pass by
(Paranoia woven deep beneath my skin)
I draw this line and hope you'll take my side
(Breathe slow, breathe slow)
You shouldn't have to fight alone
(You shouldn't have to fight at all)
It's nobody's battle but your own

[Verse 3: George Pettit]
Panic holds me like a gun, firm and steadfast, bleak and cold
I think it's time to kill the drama, this lifestyle's getting old
Whispers from behind closed doors, eyes spy from dark windows
Plotting minds that seek to harm me or maybe not, I don't really know
[Pre-Chorus: George Pettit]
There is something waiting for me in the darkest part of my imagination

[Chorus: Dallas Green & (George Pettit)]
I stay in time and watch you pass by
(Paranoia woven deep beneath my skin)
I draw this line and hope you'll take my side
(Breathe slow, breathe slow)
You shouldn't have to fight alone
(You shouldn't have to fight at all)
It's nobody's battle but your own

[Verse 4: George Pettit]
This is just self-induced terror, there's more to come, this is just a glimpse
I tell myself it's all in my head but I'm pretty hard to convince

[Bridge: George Pettit]
Oh, there's no relief
Oh, this world can offer
Oh, there's no relief
Oh, this world can offer me

[Outro: Dallas Green]
I stay in time and watch you pass by
I draw this line and hope you'll take my side
You shouldn't have to fight alone
It's nobody's battle but your own
