Conor Oberst - Fast Friends lyrics

[Verse 1] Righteousness is its own reward Solitude is what I shoot for What good's behind me now It doesn't count bu*terflies and the hangers on Come by my house, see the lights on They want to have their say At my front gate [Bridge] Well I don't know what to tell you man It has really been too long Whatever I had to give away Whatever I had to give away Is gone [Verse 2] A broken heart is a natural d**h But to never love, that is tragic And the far worse of the two I can a**ure you It's never hard to make a fast friend Someone to dance till the song ends The trick is getting loose Once they got you [Bridge] Well I don't know what to tell you kid Though it really is too bad All that I tried to push away All that I tried to push away Came back [Outro] All that crowded loneliness made for a long day All that crowded loneliness gave me a long face Everywhere I go I think I went the wrong way All that crowded loneliness made for a long day
