Absent Company from Beautiful Liar by The Enigmatic Foe
At times when I get into a funk, I oftentimes feel like a wounded animal. I want to hide but also be consoled. The effect is like biting the hand that feeds you, pushing away the ones that care. It's all about the give and take so this song is dedicated to those people who have drifted away in the inevitable ebb and flow, to those who have passed, and those who are on their way. Many thanks to Ronnie Martin for helping me restructure the chorus and the ending solo.

Lyrics
All your friends have come and gone
Just when you need one to stay
Maybe you pushed them too far
or you just pushed them away
company
Every faded photograph, yearbooks stacked upon the shelf
How long do you think you’ll last when you’re standing by yourself?
company
So raise a glass for absent company
and distant friends who’ve gone away
Let’s raise a glass for absent company
Maybe you’ll find one to stay (hey hey hey)
So raise a glass for absent company
and distant friends who’ve gone away
Let’s raise a glass for absent company
Is it too much to ask for company?
Be thankful for the ones who stay (hey hey hey)
