Old Friend Video (MV)

Staring at the boards
Waiting for a break
Judging by the splinters
There's not much more to take

Over and under and
Laughing too much
It's easy repetition
But no good as such

Techno religion
Brought me apart
Lend me your order
Dusty, broken spark

But there's no feeling
No movement, no reprise
I would say you're godless
But I still can't believe
The way you twist your imagery

If I were a better man
I would have to know
If I were a better man
I would go

Oh I could show you
The truth of church and state
Separate in method
But not in what they make

And oh I could give someone
A cooler spot in hell
Trade my way to a crowded bunk
In the overseer's cell

But oh how you'd miss me
At least that's what you'd say
Until you came to visit
And left me there to stay

Oh what would you tell me
That it's not my fault?
That I'm in this hellhole
Incendiary heart
Is it true I'm only
An extra in my life?

If I were a better man
I would try again
If I were a better man
I would stay your friend
If I were a better man
I would lead the way
But I'm no better than
I was yesterday
