I gave up on blood today 
He was my friend 'till the end, but I turned him away 
He was blue under you, but you couldn't keep him in 
You're too thin, my friend skin 

I gave up on skin today 
She was my friend 'till the end, but I turned her away 
He was pumping through me, but I had to set him free 
He's a stud, my friend blood 

And it's all of my life 
Friend and foe 
Feel alive 
How was I, how was I to know? 

I gave up on hope today 
She was my friend 'till the end, but I turned her away 
She was shining so bright, that she gave me a fright 
She's insane 
Too much fire 'round the brain 

Which reminds me of how your body feels 
When you're coming down with a cold 
More frequently now, I'm getting older 
And I'm never gonna let you go 
I'm never gonna let you go 
Never gonna let you go 

I'm never gonna let you go 
I'm never gonna let you go (more frequently now) 
I'm never gonna let you go (more frequently now) 
I'm never gonna let you go (more frequently now) 
Never gonna let you go (more frequently now) 
Never gonna let you go (more frequently now) 
(More frequently now) 
(More frequently now)
