John What's The Use Lyrics

Time we had reminds me of a friend I had
I didn’t like him anyway
And I forgot his special day
I don’t believe his history
Long forgotten mystery
He told me that his name was John
He had no friends
His hair was long

Days we passed
I never thought he’d leave so fast
He always kept me company
And watched late-night films with me
He wondered why he had to try
To fit in like a normal guy
He reached out for his cigarette
And opened up my broken chest

John what’s the use
The sound is missing
Never had to prove
That time’s not getting
Hey what’s the use The sound is going down

Explained to him
How all the lights went out again
I feel so awful close tonight
The man who speaks is always right
I feel like in a history book
Baby boy don’t even look
Prepare for landing
Start to shout
When I am dead
The lights go out

John what’s the use
The sound is missing
Never had to prove
That time’s not getting
Hey what’s the use
The sound is going down

Hey what’s the use
The sound is missing
Never had to prove
Our lives are going down
Going down
