Benefits of lying (with your friend)

everything i say falls away
like the fade on the radio song
and everything i try pass me by
like the tide seems to rise then it's gone

still there's something to be said
for company in bed this time of morning
see i knew we'd agree
how can anyone deny
the benefits of lying with your friends
we'll try it again

sometimes when i'm by myself
i can't find myself
and theres no one there
sometimes i can see myself
i can be myself with a friend

now everyday i write, both my eyes
and my mind fills with complications
and everywhere i go pass by slow
fading moments and aspirations

still there's something to be said
for company in bed this time of morning
see i knew we'd agree
how can anyone deny
the benefits of lying with your friend
we'll try it again

sometimes when i'm by myself
i can't find myself
and there's no one there
sometimes i can be myself
i can see myself with a friend now
(a friend now)

i'll never know you like you know yourself
you'll never know me like i know myself
i'll never know you like you know yourself
you'll never know me like i know myself
i'll never know you like you know yourself
you'll never know me like i know myself
