Lyrics
I miss my beautiful friend
she had to go and give it up again
Now all the meaning of
this sin is all I have to give
Did you knock knock knock at my door
Did you leave your troubles by the bedroom or hall
Did you run baby run run away
I left the back door open
so you didn't have to say
that I can't take this and I can't
fake taking the blame
I need my beautiful friend
to hide me from the way things end
Now all the fools get their touch
you turn to faith and you miss their sucker punch
Did you knock knock knock at my door
Did you leave your troubles by the bedroom or hall
Did you run baby run run away
I left the back door open
so you didn't have to say
that I can't take this and I can't
fake taking the blame
