Lyrics

HELLO, I NEED A FRIEND, SOMEONE THAT KNOWS ME
IT CAN'T BE ANYONE WHO WANTS TO CONTROL ME
REFLECTING ON WHERE I'VE BEEN, I KNOW WHAT I'VE LEARNED
FROM EVERY MISTAKE I'VE MADE, EVERY BRIDGE I'VE BURNED

ON MY WAY HERE FROM THERE, I'VE SEEN A FEW THINGS
NOTHING HAS BEEN ENOUGH, BUT IS THERE A NEW THING?
KEEPING THE ENDS OUT FOR A TIE THAT BINDS
NOT BEING SHACKLED BY THINGS I'VE LEFT BEHIND

UNDERNEATH A WANING MOON
LIGHT AND SHADOWS FOOL THE EYE

HELLO, I NEED A FRIEND, TO KEEP MY HEAD STRAIGHT
SO I CAN IMPROVISE WHAT I CAN'T CREATE
FLOATING LIKE A GHOST WITHOUT A PLACE TO HAUNT
LOOKING FOR WHAT I NEED, NOT JUST WHAT I WANT

IT ALL COMES DOWN TO WHAT WE CAN BEAR
WHAT WE KEEP TO OURSELVES AND WHAT WE SHARE
TO KEEP YOU SATISFIED, I AM INCLINED
BUT I'M NOT YOUR KEEPER AND YOU'RE NOT MINE

LOOKING WEST ACROSS THE FIELDS
THE SETTING SUN IS IN YOUR EYES

HELLO, I NEED A FRIEND WHO WON'T ACCUSE ME
OR TWIST THE TRUTH AROUND TO TRY AND CONFUSE ME
IF I CAN COUNT ON YOU, YOU CAN COUNT ON ME
AND WE MIGHT GET OURSELVES WHERE WE OUGHT TO BE
WHERE WE OUGHT TO BE
