i just needed a friend

First Aid Kit

So I could just sit here listening to the breeze
Say we re all gonna die that curable disease
So I m ready to be taken wherever it takes me to
But I d rather just sit here waiting for you

So look, see here, this is all that I am
Some amateur painting in a golden frame
Forgive me, forgive me is all I have left
I guess I just needed a friend

Words that once sounded sweet to my ears
Hold me close, I am full of these fears
Here where I stutter and shake
Only a mistake

Now we can play dress up, yes, I ll play the part
I ll stand up and laugh at my own frightened heart
Haha, haha, ain t it absurd how things can turn?
It s these kinds of nights I forget the lessons I ve learned

So look, see here, this is all that you are
I tried to find out how broke down these walls
I m sorry, I m sorry it had to be that way
I guess I just needed a friend

Words that once sounded sweet to my ears
Hold me closer, I am full of these fears
Here where I stutter and shake
Only a mistake

Words that once sounded sweet to my ears
Hold me close, I am full of these fears
Here where I stutter and shake
Only a mistake
