Bonnie Prince Billy - Beware Your Only Friend Lyrics

I want to be your only friend
My active mind don't wish it so
Watch out for these silent thoughts
That's where the seed of soul sucking grows

When each who comes around you
Who takes some of your life
That's when I get angry
An outfit for my fright, oh, oh

You want to be my daughter
I hate it but it's so
I wanted you as my mother
Cheering me as I go

When each who comes around you
Who takes some of your life
That's when I get angry
An outfit for my fright, oh, oh

Picture us lounging just sitting and listening
And loving what we hear that has never happened
We both flail too much
We flail too much to let the other near

I want to be your only friend
My quiet mind is not fit to lead
Take the warning I've seen fit to lend
And from the stage we have been free
