Lyrics: Piebald. We Are the Only Friends We Have. Long Nights.


Long nights, hard times. Everything that makes you feel tired.
I think I got to get away from you.
Long nights, hard times. Everything that makes you feel tired.
That's why I got to get away from you.

I've got something to say. You might not like how it sounds. I don't care.
I've got to get out of here.
You look like or your disguise, you're just a monkey in a monkey suit, oh yeah.
Now you know how I feel.
It's just time or it's the wrong time.
You can't deal with me. I can't deal with you.
And now it's justified for both of us, oh yeah.

Long nights, hard times. Everything that makes you feel tired.
That's why I got to get away from you.

Just one more thing. Can you tell me something that I haven't heard?
I want to hear how it sounds.
What was that, that you said? You can't think of anything, well think harder, oh yeah.
Tell me a secret or two.
Speak up dear, my hearing's not so good.
I shouldn't call you dear. That's a good one.
The best and worst secret you've ever yelled at me, oh yeah.

Long nights, hard times. Everything that makes you feel tired.
That's why I got to get away from you.

I've been around long enough.
Life is what happens while we're making plans.
I can't write another one, yeah.
Our age of miracles is past.

Long nights, hard times. Everything that makes you feel tired.
That's why I got to get away from you.
Long nights, hard times, got to get away from you.
Long nights, hard times, got to get away from you, you, you, yeah
