Lyrics

One 4 My Friend Dangus
Music and Lyrics- Van Meter

I try to listen but you bore me
With your arrogant plans for escaping the work
If you want to write some songs, make a statement if you dare
Try to rely on some people who care
Cause if they don?t they'll waste all of your time
(Chorus)
One 4 my friends
The road ahead must take some bends
One 4 my friends
Winners never quit, quitters never win

Had a love so early, way before the buzz
I thought that you had all really knew me
Music was the most important to me
Now I see it goes much deeper than that
Creating love which is true, that?s a fact
If only you?d believe like I do
(Chorus)
One 4 my friends
It?s not what you did but what you wouldn?t do
One 4 my friends
Couldn?t wait to taste just where I?d been
(Bridge)
You know when you bailed on me it really let me down
And you?re heartless to think that we don?t have to try our best
What if a man is worth as much as he believes
That what he does can make us smile awhile
While our dreams die because people don?t care
So you?re war torn feeling old?
You know those silly mind games never worked on me
Spreading peace is more fun but much more hard work
When you?re dealing with people like you
Who don?t know how to be an ally

It?s funny how fate turns around those tables of fear
And your sloppy second 30 silver pieces
Justifying all your reasons
You?ve been a great liar but a terrible friend
This is my last song to ask all of you
How do you sleep?

One 4 my friends
The road ahead must take some bends
One 4 my friends
It?s not what you did but what you wouldn?t do
One 4 my friends
Couldn?t wait to taste just where I?d been
One 4 my friends
Winners never quit, quitters never win
