Republica - Are 'friends' Electric? Lyrics
Its cold outsideAnd the paints peeling off of my wallsTheres a man outsideIn a long coat, grey hat, smoking a cigaretteNow the light fades outAnd I wonder what Im doing in a room like thisTheres a knock on the doorAnd just for a second I thought I remembered youSo now Im aloneNow I can think for myselfAbout little dealsAnd s.usAnd things that I just dont understandA white lie that nightOr a sly touch at timesI dont think it meant anything to youSo I open the doorIts the friend that Id left in the hallwayplease sit downA candle lit shadow on a wall near the bedYou know I hate to askBut are friends electric?Only mines broke downAnd now Ive no-one to loveSo I find out your reasonFor the phone calls and smilesAnd it hurtsAnd Im lonelyAnd I should never have triedAnd I missed you tonightIt must be time to leaveYou see it meant everything to me
