My Friend

I grew up too sheltered and innocent
Found LSD as an escape from stress
Only knew where I was coming from
Didn’t care where I was going or what I’d become
14 years old full of LSD
Cuz that’s what I wanted to be
And it was always so much fun
Freedom to do whatever I chose
Freedom to dose and dose and dose
In a park frying under the sun
Those times are gone
Those times are gone
Those times are gone
Those times, those times will never be gone
Guess I missed a lot of growing up
And now I’m just catching up
But sometimes there’s just too much to deal with
I wish I could blow off the world like I did when I was younger
18 years old and I don’t feel as free
I miss the way things used to be
But I know it wasn’t always that much fun
It’s too easy to rationalize
And start believing your own lies
And now I know that’s what I’ve done
Those times have gone
Those times have gone
Those times have gone
Don’t know why that I try to hold on
Those times will never be gone
Those times will never be gone
Those times will never be gone
Those times, those times will never be gone
Never be gone
