You know that feeling you get
You feel you´re older than time
You ain´t exactly sure
If you´ve been away a while
Do you keep the receipts
For the friends that you buy
And ain´t it bittersweet
You were only just getting by
But I hope you know
That it won´t let go
It sticks around with you until the day you die
And i hope you know that it´s touch and go
I hope the tears don´t stain the world that waits outside
Where did it all go wrong?
And until you´ve heard
The dreams you bought for your lies
You´ll be castaway
Alone under the stormy skies
But I hope you know
That it won´t let go
It sticks around with you until the day you die
And i hope you know that it´s touch and go
I hope the tears don´t stain the world that waits outside
Where did it all go wrong?
You feel you´re older than time
You ain´t exactly sure
If you´ve been away a while
Do you keep the receipts
For the friends that you buy
And ain´t it bittersweet
You were only just getting by
But I hope you know
That it won´t let go
It sticks around with you until the day you die
And i hope you know that it´s touch and go
I hope the tears don´t stain the world that waits outside
Where did it all go wrong?
And until you´ve heard
The dreams you bought for your lies
You´ll be castaway
Alone under the stormy skies
But I hope you know
That it won´t let go
It sticks around with you until the day you die
And i hope you know that it´s touch and go
I hope the tears don´t stain the world that waits outside
Where did it all go wrong?

'Do you keep the receipts
for the friends that you buy'
'But I hope you know
that it won't let go
it sticks around with you until the day you die'
'And until you've repaid
the dreams you bought for your lies'
It touched my heart, 'cause maybe now my life is messed up, by myself.
I think this song about ....when it come to that point, accept the reality, but don't be obsessed with it, don't let the despond blind you from the world that wait for you to get a life.
This song is just incredible.
Noel's voice is just amazing.
I'm not sure what it's about. but agree with comments up there on rich and the famous ^^
because it had nothing that hit you instantly. But the album has some great subtle songs that you come back on. Gas Panic, Who Feels Love, Roll It Over etc... Are all great songs.....
Damn straight SOTSOG is underrated. And that this song, Gas Panic and Sunday Morning Call are great songs.
"do you keep the reciepts
for the friends that you buy"
The best song of SOTSOG
