'''Faith in the Light''' (formerly titled '''Everybody Depends on a Friend''') is an unreleased [[Weezer]] song. | "'''Faith in the Light'''" (formerly titled "'''Everybody Depends on a Friend'''") is an unreleased [[Weezer]] song. | ||
==Overview== | |||
"Faith in the Light" was originally demoed during [[Steakhouse Demos|sessions at Steakhouse Studios]] and [[Cello Demos|Cello Studios]] in late October and early November of [[2001]]. The song was debuted live on the HBO show ''Reverb'', wherein the band performed at the Knitting Factory in Hollywood on October 24, 2001, under the name "[[Goat Punishment]]". The song was subsequently performed live at a handful of shows in November of 2001. Two soundboard recordings of the song from these shows were posted by Karl Koch to the band's [[weezer.com|official website]]. The song was played for the final time on [[November 17]] and, apparently, discarded thereafter, as it was not attempted during the [[Maladroit Demos|sessions for ''Maladroit'']], which began the following month. | |||

<poem>Everybody depends on a friend | <poem>Everybody depends on a friend | ||
To hide their face from the sun | |||
In the morning when things haven't changed | In the morning, when things haven't changed, | ||
Your world is coming undone | |||
And everywhere that you go | And everywhere that you go | ||
Your nose is starting to grow | |||
You lose your faith in the light | You lose your faith in the light | ||
OK | |||
OK | |||
Everybody | Everybody looks up to the stars | ||
To find the things that they need | |||
Hanging over their heads in the night | |||
And now they're looking to me | |||
And everywhere that you go | And everywhere that you go | ||
Your nose is starting to grow | |||
You lose your faith in the light | You lose your faith in the light | ||
OK | |||
OK | |||
Come on baby won't you tell me again | Come on, baby, won't you tell me again? | ||
I just want you to tell me you | I just want you to tell me you can | ||
After everything we've been through | After everything we've been through | ||
My heart will make it up to you | |||
I couldn't stand the pain | |||
Everybody looks up to the stars | |||
To find the things that they need | |||
To find the things that they need | |||
</poem> | |||
===Earlier lyrics=== | |||
<poem> | |||
Everybody is climbing a tree | |||
to show the way to the stars | |||
In the morning, when things haven't changed, | |||
Your world is taken too far | |||
Everbody looks up to the light | Everbody looks up to the light | ||
To show the way to the stars | |||
To show the way to the stars | |||
To show their way to the stars | |||
</poem> | </poem> | ||
