Song lyrics

[Chorus:]
You used to be my confidante
My underneath-the-staircase friend
But I fell out of love with you
And brought our romance to an end
I played with you throughout the day
And told you every secret thought
Unlike my other so-called friends
You stood beside me as I fought

[Verse 1:]
In your reflected glory
I could dream of shining far off lands
Where serpents turn to bits of string
And played like kittens in my hand

[Verse 2:]
In our imaginary world
Where butterflies wear army boots
And stomp around the forest
Chanting long lost anthems
Long lost anthems

[Chorus:]
You used to be my confidante
My underneath-the-staircase friend
But I fell out of love with you
And brought our romance to an end
I played with you throughout the day
And told you every secret thought
Unlike my other so-called friends
You stood beside me as I fought [2x]

[Outro:]
You used to be my confidante
