Letter To A Friend Lyrics - Singles - Shelter

We were friends since school 

The punks were never cool 

But we didn't care anyway 

And even in the scene 

When it was cool to be mean 

We walked the other way 

The other way 

Rebels from birth this world had no worth 

But then you went astray one day 

And I don't think it's right 

That you gave up the fight 

And walked away, you ran away 

We could've made that change 

We could've set this world 

This world on fire 

What happened to your desire? 

How did you think that I would feel? 

Didn't you think I was for real? 

I know it's been so long since then 

But it's time I sent this letter to my friend 

We had dreams and schemes 

That they laughed about 

But we didn't care anyway 

I feel hurt and confused 

When I think of you 

Where do you stand my friend? 

Is it too late? 

We stayed up all night and talked about life 

We seemed so sober those days 

We stood side by side 

And I don't know why you threw it away 

What can you say? 

We could've made that change 

We could've set this world 

This world on fire 

What happened to your desires 

How did you think that I would feel? 

Didn't you think I was for real? 

I know it's been so long since then 

But I guess I'll send this letter 

It's time I sent this letter to my friend 

I'm gonna make that change 

I'm gonna set this world 

This world on fire 

Who cares about your pretty desires 

I'm gonna make that change 

I'm gonna set this world 

This world on fire 

So who cares about your pretty desires
