Gonna See My Friend - Pearl Jam

Gonna See My Friend - Pearl Jam Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Do you want to hear something sad?
We are but victims of desire
I'm going to shake this day
I want to shake this day before I retire

[Chorus 1]
I'm going to see my friend
I'm going to see my friend, make it go away
I'm sick of everything
I'm going to see my friend, make it go away

[Verse 2]
Well I said I... I won't be long before we all walk off the wire
Well I'm going to see my friend, I'm gonna see my friend for what I require
Well I said I will come in quick
Don't want my flame to get no higher

[Chorus 1]
I'm going to see my friend
I'm going to see my friend, make it go away
I'm sick of everything
I'm going to see my friend, make it go away

[Bridge]
Want to leave it all
Want to give it up
Want to see it go once and for all
Want to view it cho
Want a little bit home
Want to be there
Hard as a statue, black as a tattoo, never to wash away

[Verse 3]
Going to take me an astral plane
I'm going to tunnel through denial
But I'm going to shake this day
I want to shake this day before I retire

[Chorus 1]
I'm going to see my friend
I'm going to see my friend, make it go away
I'm sick of everything
I'm going to see my friend, make it go away
