Never My Friend

Verse 1

You smile at my face then you twist the knife

I counted you close I counted you twice

Every promise you made was a pretty disguise

I let you in and you burned it all down

Pre-Chorus

So tell me who you really are

When the lights go out and the truth gets hard

You wear my name like a borrowed scar

I see you now

Chorus

You were never my friend

You were waiting to strike

You were never my friend

You just sharpened the lie

And I gave you the map to my heart

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh

Oh-oh

Verse 2

I built you a throne you buried me under

I called you my brother you pulled me asunder

The louder I loved you the deeper the thunder

You fed on the trust that I handed away

Pre-Chorus

So tell me who you really are

When the lights go out and the truth gets hard

You wear my name like a borrowed scar

I see you now

Chorus

You were never my friend

You were waiting to strike

You were never my friend

You just sharpened the lie

And I gave you the map to my heart

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh

Oh-oh

Bridge

I forgive you for the war

I forgive you for the wounds

But I will not forget the door

You closed when I was in the room

Chorus

You were never my friend

You were waiting to strike

You were never my friend

You just sharpened the lie

And I gave you the map to my heart

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh

Oh-oh
