If A Friend Lyrics
Trust a friend as if a faultline
Judge him as you would have blew him
Love him as you cut a fist off
Put a liar, put him through
If a friend
Hold him close enough to cut him
Brand him fate to ease the hurt
Praise him for his thoughtless actions
As you drag his bleeding heart through dirt
If a friend
Make him think he owes you conscience
Twist his side to see a tear
Slowly turn your back and leave him
Leave him lonely, show him fear
If a friend
End his wounds with salted gravel
Laughing at his screaming face
Pet his back with loaded daggers
Wipe his tears with shining razor blades
If a friend
Reassure him that he didn't fail you
Talk of death and bleed till then
Share with him as if a junkie
If a loser, if a friend
If a friend
Judge him as you would have blew him
Love him as you cut a fist off
Put a liar, put him through
Brand him fate to ease the hurt
Praise him for his thoughtless actions
As you drag his bleeding heart through dirt
Twist his side to see a tear
Slowly turn your back and leave him
Leave him lonely, show him fear
Laughing at his screaming face
Pet his back with loaded daggers
Wipe his tears with shining razor blades
Talk of death and bleed till then
Share with him as if a junkie
If a loser, if a friend

Good to see someone added these songs. I gotta say those lyrics are way off.
Judge him as you would have blew him? I don't know what that means but it sounds ridiculous.
Trust a friend as if faultline judge him as you would a book love him as you could a thistle, could a liar, could a crook
if a friend...
Hold him close enough to cut him grant him faith to ease the hurt praise him for his thoughtless actions as you drag his bleeding heart through dirt
if a friend...
Make him think he owns your conscience twist his sight to see a tear slowly turn your back and leave him leave him lonely, show him fear
if a friend...
Mend his wounds with salt and gravel laughing at his screaming face at his back with loaded daggers wipe his tears with shining razor blades
(trust me I would never... look in these eyes, would these fuck you over?) (if you were an enemy, come on, but not if you're a friend)
if a friend...
Reassure should he be fatal talk of death and grief 'til end share with him as if a junkie, if a loser, if a friend
Never heard the song, thanks for the correct lyrics by the way, I think I understand now. It's about how you treat friends differently, yet the same, as enemies. Possibly a reference to the Christian maxim "love your enemies as your friends."
