So Long My Friends Lyrics
Close call, that's all and now I crawl
From my hiding place
I'll hide my face while you stand by my side
While you stand by me
Did you know that what you said never meant a thing to me
'Cause I need something to see?
Close call, that's all and now I need you
It's all right, it's all right, and it's all right
You stand by my side
So long my friend, today's your day
To be one in a million or just like the millions, my friend
So long, farewell, for you have chosen to save yourself
Save yourself again
It's in you
Save me from myself
Speak to me, speak to me
I'm so far away
Speak to me, speak to me
Aren't you proud of me?
Song Description:
"This is one that talks about sharing the same ministry vision with a friend at first and then seeing them go off in another direction. We were working with another guitar player when we first started and he's since moved on, but we're still buddies and love him to death. We pray that God's going to continue to use him and we know he wants the same for us." - Zach Zegan (Dizmas)
"The song's gone through a lot of changes and face-lifts from a really dramatic and theatrical song that didn't have a Chorus to a more listener friendly track. I wouldn't call it a power ballad, though the bridge is really intense and then it settles really nicely. We're leaving room for some of those original ideas to come out again in concert" - Nick Arnanda (Dizmas)
