“Old Friend” is about being estranged from someone very close to you and the journey that it takes to learn how to choose forgiveness. The longer you hold on to contempt, the more it gains a useless weight for you to carry around that ultimately wears you down. As time passes, the sharp edges of what originally hurt you begin to soften and blur and all you’re left with is the desperate longing for the love you used to have.

Lyrics by Ivan Barry, Zach Boucher, & Brian McShea

Let’s not talk about the president
Let’s not talk about the rest
That I resent that you believe
Let’s bury it, don’t care we disagree

Let’s not talk about my bank account
It’s not often I’m around
And I don’t need your doubt, I’m positive,
This is what I gotta give
For the life you never lived
Life you never lived

Don’t you still believe in me?
Won’t you quit your pleading for me to change?
I’ve got enough weight on my back
I’ve got enough hate for my past
Until the end, I need my old friend
I need my old friend back

Can we please just drive around a bit?
Can I show you all my songs?
I know that you’d be proud of it
You’re still the reason I’m doing all of this
You’re still the reason

I’m sick of crying, I’m sick of trying
To pile up a wall
How could I not be what you taught me?
The dream you never saw
You’re still the reason

Don’t you still believe in me?
Won’t you quit your pleading for me to change?
I’ve got enough weight on my back
I’ve got enough hate for my past
Until the end, I need my old friend
I need my old friend…
I need you back

You’re still the reason
