Old Friends

[Verse 1]
The way divides the victim
I won't ask for your permission
I saw dysfunction in your rhythm
Life just slips away
Pass right through the first incision
Everything we are

[Chorus]
I'll wait till you've forgotten (I see the way you are)
If you get past the words that measure unaffected
Polarized, innocent, make fractions that we know
Quietly effortless just as the summer ends

[Verse 2]
If you could keep the right commitment
And you put all your hope within him
I saw dysfunction in your rhythm
Life just slips away
Pass right through the first incision
Everything we are

[Chorus]
I'll wait till you've forgotten (I see the way you are)
If you get past the words that measure unaffected
Polarized, innocent, make fractions that we know
Quietly effortless just as the summer ends

[Bridge]
It won't be my decision (Don't wait for me)
I didn't ask for your permission (It won't be long)
No way divides the victim (It rips away)
I didn't ask for your permission (It won't be long)
It won't be my decision (Don't wait for me)
I didn't ask for your permission (It won't be long)
No way divides the victim (It rips away)
I didn't ask for your permission

(Now that we, at the end, see the way you tried to help me
Now that it wouldn't work, we connect with something anyway)
