Funeral for a Friend - Chapter and Verse

Stand by Me for the Millionth Time

I've seen you falter
Was the last fucking hurdle
Resentment of a home wrecker
Resentment from a home wrecker

And I don't need your sympathy
I know what you did to me
I know what you did
I know what you did to me

For a change I would like more
More tattoos
For a change I could like myself

Cover up my flaws
Wrap me in plastic
Send me off downstream

The midtown rush and I'm stuck in line
Waiting for a sign
Passing off metaphors as conversation
Down some shitty fucking phone line

When I can't think of a better place to be
When I can't think of a better place to be
When I can't think of a better place to be
I wish I could be a better me

For a change I would like more
More tattoos
For a change I could like myself

Cover up my flaws
Wrap me in plastic
Send me off downstream

I've sat and watched stand by me
For the millionth time
It's a lifeline
I wish I was Chris Chambers
But in truth
I'm more like vern

I've sat and watched stand by me
For the millionth time
It's a lifeline
I wish I was Chris Chambers
But in truth
I'm more like vern

And I'm okay with that
And I'm okay with that

For a change I would like more
More tattoos
For a change I could like myself

Cover up my flaws
Wrap me in plastic
Send me off downstream
Downstream
