I Don't Need a Friend Lyrics

I don't need a friend

Who tells me everything is alright

When it's not alright

But I don't need a friend

Who tells me everything is wrong

When every thing is wrong

You had your reasons for tightening the lid

You had your reasons for keeping that fact hid

While I cannot see the other side of your eyelids

I wonder if you remember what you did

Do you remember what you did

Well sure, I felt a bit stupid

I admit took a cheap cheap shot

Escalated when I shoulda just walked away

But I swore I wouldn't do it

That thing where I pretend it's alright

When it's not all right

I had my reasons for walking on eggshells

I didn't wanna get into the lies we story-tell

I wanna be the author of the writing on the wall

So when you see it you will know who to call

When you see it you will know who to call

He don't need a friend with which to play

He don't need to medicate

He don't need to get to work by eight

He don't need us

He don't need us

Anyway

You had your reasons for ripping off the lid

You had your reasons for calling me on my bullshit

We cannot see the other side of our ego trip

But I remember what you did

I remember what you did

I don't need a friend
