Friend in Need
Embracing Life's Struggles: A Musical Plea for Connection
Lyrics
I've been sitting around this house for days
I've been spending a lot of time at home for several days.
And you can always find me on my J's
I am usually alone (on my own).
I can't believe this is happening to me, but it is happening
I find it hard to believe, but something challenging is happening to me.
Do you feel the same? Have you noticed your world is dampening?
Asking if the listener feels the same and has noticed a negative change in their world.
I think I'll say it again, I can't believe this happening to me
Reiterating the disbelief in the challenging situation.
But it is happening, do you feel the same? Have you noticed your world is dampening?
Same as line 4, repeating the question about the listener's experience.
Friend in need
Expressing a need for a friend's support.
(Friend in need)
Reinforcing the call for a friend in need.
Come to me
Inviting the friend to come to the singer for support.
(Come to me)
Reiterating the invitation for the friend to come.
Friend in need
Repeating the expression of need for a friend's support.
(Friend in need)

Come to me
Inviting the friend to come for support.
(Come to me)

Me and life will one day get along
Expressing hope that the singer and life will eventually harmonize.
With hope and faith like mine maybe I'm wrong
Suggesting doubt about the positivity of hope and faith.
'Cos I see tunnels with no ending light
Describing a challenging situation with no apparent solution.
In a fantasy my dreams ignite
In a fantasy, the singer's dreams are still alive despite difficulties.
I can't believe this is happening to me, but it is happening
Repeating the disbelief in the challenging situation.
Do you feel the same? Have you noticed your world is dampening?
Asking if the listener feels the same and has noticed a negative change in their world.
I think I'll say it again, I can't believe this happening to me
Reiterating the disbelief in the challenging situation.
But it is happening, do you feel the same? Have you noticed your world is dampening?
Same as line 20, repeating the question about the listener's experience.

Drifting through nostalgia, sunny day, I'm smiling, rolling up the curtains
Describing a moment of nostalgia, happiness, and preparation for the day.
Making sure I get the light in, was strumming my guitar and unaware of any timing
Continuing to describe the singer's activities, playing the guitar without awareness of time.
Imagined many things, but those things are still in hiding
Imagining various things, but those thoughts remain hidden.
Was making a plea to friends in need who can confide in me who's also needing of a friend
Appealing to friends in need for mutual support.
My teeth are grinding, I'm nervous, but the curses need to be broken and binding
Feeling anxious and acknowledging the need to break curses.
If you stand here with me then I'm not afraid to fight it, I'm reaching out my hand
Expressing readiness to face challenges with the support of a friend.
Now all you've gotta do is grab it, you've been through a lot and so have I, it's been traumatic
Encouraging the friend to take the singer's extended hand.
Neglecting basic needs is killing seeds and problematic, if you fail to watch the clock, you see life moving rapid
Highlighting the importance of addressing basic needs and potential problems.
The other side is greener, where I wanna be, but damn it, nothings really over there
Expressing a desire for a better situation, though unsure if it truly exists.
Well, just some screws and hammers, maybe I can knock and mould myself back into me
Suggesting the possibility of self-improvement using tools like screws and hammers.
And screw my head together, because I'm a "Friend in Need''
Affirming the singer's role as a friend in need.
