Was it really this hard
To be in your skin
To want what you wanted
Knowing you couldn't win
Was it really this long
The road that you walked
Before you laid down
The lines around you were chalked
So Godspeed my friend
May you never be lonely again
And the enemy from whom
You always have run
Was yourself
And your army of one
You wish there was something
That you could have done
No tape to rewind and
There never was a square one
Life's been unkind
And people are cruel
It's just another show
You need to go beyond it
Don't be a fool
So Godspeed my friend...
Lay down and rest
We all know you have earned it
Lay down and sleep for a while
And I know there is comin'
Some kind of change in the weather
But I'll never see you again
Godspeed my friend
This is where you and I end
And the enemy from whom
You always have run
Was yourself and your army of one
No more shall you have to run
From yourself and your army of one
I will always remember you
I will always remember you
