Brendan Benson - New Words of Wisdom lyrics

You pretend to be there for me But in the end you'll just ignore me And I can't say what hurts me more The game you played or the final score But who am I to say these things To know how or why Or what life brings And I made my bed So I think I'll lie down Rest my weary head It won't be long now And I ain't got the time And I don't have the patience For you or your kind And all your relations no New words of wisdom From an old friend of mine So you go your way and I'll go mine And it pains me to say that it wasn't our time I'll see you again on down that road And I'll call you friend but we both know That a thousand years couldn't heal these wounds And all our tears could fill these rooms And I ain't got the time And I don't have the patience For you or your kind And all your relations no New words of wisdom From an old friend of mine And I ain't got the time And I don't have the patience For you or your kind And all your relations no New words of wisdom From an old friend of mine
