lyrics

The shakes start first. The pain hits my guts. Strangers think I have the flu; my friends just know the truth. What would I do without a friend like you? To lie for me when I am cold and sick. What would I do without a friend like you? My little pixie, you could have had your pick. What would I do without a friend like you? This darkness, it's a part that only you can see. What would I do without a friend like you? Someone to keep the world safe for me. What would I do without a friend like you?
