In The Company of Old Friends

from In The Company of Old Friends by Ed Poole

/

lyrics

Seventeen letters, arranged in my head
Thrown to the river, and destined to spread
But I have not won,
I am still sweating over every conceivable word
There is no victory that I

Can't stop the ink bleeding right into my skin
It's a lie, I'm not sure if this even means anything.

So I crawled from the river, and ran to my bed
A parade for the demons that tear me to shreds
But you're pissing blood, the bruises you wear are fading
It gets stuck in my throat, the stories you tell still frighten me

I can't stop the ink bleeding right into my skin
Even now, I'm not sure that it even means anything

'Cause we put such faith in such little things
We can talk it over if it helps
And I couldn't wait to return to what I recognised as familiar
In the company of old friends
