A fellow baptize, he was always a good friend to me
Told me the pain that he felt when he was a kid
About the way that his father sits strong at the table
But never said a single word to him
My friend's in danger now
My friend's in danger now
He'd sing all the songs, the ones fathers teach sons how to sing
He'd put food on the table
And always left a place for me
Felt like whole in the sun that he wanted to come
Would never wash away the pain we feel
Think my friend's in danger now
My friend's in danger now
It's all a bad, bad, bad dream
Sometimes a bad, bad, bad dream
Could wake a good man from his sleep at night
My friend's in danger now
'Cause my friend's in danger now
My friend's in danger now
My friend's in danger now
