"My Friend Kyle" lyrics

We were young kids
We made a difference
We survived those churches and hospitals
Tall tales get taller, but they'll never grow old
Yours is a flame, it never goes out:
A guiding light in the storm for our sinking hearts
Yours is the summer that will never end

Sleep now, it's only getting better, man
Sleep now, it's only getting better

Some day we'll all die; some people never live
You lived the lives of a thousand men
Living from your feet, never from your knees
You are the wind, you are the sun
You are the light above, you are the air in our lungs
You are the earth beneath our feet

Sleep now, it's only getting better, man
Sleep now, it's only getting better
Sleep now, it's only getting better, man
Sleep now, it's only getting better

No don't fade away, don't fade away
No don't fade away, don't fade away
No don't fade away, don't fade away
No don't fade away, don't fade away
No don't take him away, don't take him away
No don't take him away, don't take him away

Sleep now, it's only getting better, man
Sleep now, it's only getting better
Sleep now, it's only getting better, man
(No don't take him away, don't take him away)
Sleep now, it's only getting better
(No don't take him away, don't take him away)
