Songtext I need a friend James Arthur

I need a friend

I need a friend
Who sticks by me through all of my sins
Who uncomplicates the complicated things
Is there such a friend?

Friend who tells me I am not crazy
Someone who will pick me up daily
Cause God only knows
I've been on my knees too long.

I've been leaning
On bricks that won't protect me
I guess I'm just too heavy
They resent me cause they don't wanna help me.

I know I'm not the only one
Who's got demons that might haunt me
And I don't wanna face them all alone

I need a friend x4

Pick up the phone like it's your duty
You've got a such an inner beauty
You're the opposite of me
See solutions i don't read
Feel the need to keep me clean
Cause you know what I'd achieve
All my dreams
You'll redeem my shortcomings.

I've been waiting for my karma
To ignite another drama
Can you deal with all of that? x2
Is there such a friend? x2

I've been leaning
On bricks that won't protect me
I guess I'm just too heavy
They resent me cause they don't wanna help me.

I know I'm not the only one
Who's got demons that might haunt me
And I don't wanna face them all alone

I need a friend
sha-la-la-la
sha-la-la-la x3
I need a friend

I need a friend
sha-la-la-la
sha-la-la-la x3
I need a friend

I've been leaning
On bricks that won't protect me
I guess I'm just too heavy
They resent me cause they don't wanna help me.

I know I'm not the only one
Who's got demons that might haunt me
And I don't wanna face this world alone

I need a friend x4
