Friend Like Me

Lyrics: Rune Mørch Albrechtsen Music: Rune Mørch Albrechtsen 10 years I’ve been sober 10 years since most of my so-called friends have asked me over 10 years packed with things to toast to But no one to toast with, I suppose if all it takes is just a can of soda To make ‘em bottle the relation and what plans involve you Maybe the substance that relates ya just ain’t that you hoped for Cause my oasis is not a champagne supernova And I don’t wanna look back in anger cause I never had my closure And so I guess it’s just too bad And you’re best off accepting that you’re destined to lose track With everyone you ever thought you had a true connection to When you’re not letting it loose on the regular nor included in the Messenger group chat On my friend list ain’t a friend left to dispute that And that’s the message when I text ‘em, where my dudes at? For all my efforts I just get an excuse back Why I’m so apologetic, you ask I don’t blame nobody for these nights I spend alone I’m there for everyone around me, but I get it, that’s no fun Now watch me come up with excuses for everybody else Cause I don’t blame nobody, nobody, nobody but myself When I dwell in jealousy When I need a friend indeed When I have myself the least That’s when I wish I need a friend like me I get it, I get it, I don’t fit this type of vibe I accept that things are different, I’m not trynna start a fight But do you know what it’s like To never have plans on a Saturday night Cause I do And it’s too wishful thinking any instant that somebody would write Just to check in, just to mention that I’m free to drop by Cause you don’t know what it’s like To watch all your friends have the time of their life Without you And I do still fantasize ‘bout unbreakable ties Bound to identify by folks I barely recognise Cause whoever I rely on only lie to me now The true reason why I find someone and surmise they’ll let me down Sometimes I choose to laugh about it, only to protect my pride A few times I’ve badmouthed them, hoping you would pick my side I drew lines, but who was I ever trying to clown You know I’d break my own spine, if they would let me back around You say the same I’ve said about em, better watch your ****ing mouth I don’t blame nobody for these nights I spend alone I’m there for everyone around me, but I get it, that’s no fun Now watch me come up with excuses for everybody else Cause I don’t blame nobody, nobody, nobody but my… Why would I cry over them I’m not the one who lost a true friend We were supposed to go till the end And now I’m the one who can’t start again But why would I cry over them I’m the only one who ever fought for this thing I don’t suppose you know where they went Cause where were they last time, and who was there then? Nobody Nobody Nobody Nobody, nobody, nobody but myself When I dwell in jealousy When I need a friend indeed When I have myself the least That’s when I need a friend like me That’s when I need a friend like me That’s when I need a friend like me That’s when I need a friend like me That’s when I need a friend like
