Looking For My Friends Lyrics - Ellis Paul

This time let's not bring up my disasters 

Or put me on some couch like Sigmund Freud 

Your textbooks filled with hypothetical answers 

So to summarize she called it null and void 

What do you want me to tell you? 

What do you want me to say? 

I've been cut by the rose again 

All the petals have fallen to pieces 

Now I'm left with the thorn and the stem 

I'm out looking for my friends 

I'm looking for my friends 

She left the note in the sleeve of my coat 

That was not nice 

I called her on the phone, the voice that spoke 

It was cold, it was hard as ice 

I tried to speak, the connection was weak 

'Cause I was talking to a machine 

She said, "If this is you, we're totally through" 

And that's the last of her I've seen 

What do you want me to tell you? 

I got the message loud and clear 

I've been cut by the rose again 

All the petals have fallen to pieces 

Now I'm left with the thorn and the stem 

I'm out looking for my friends 

I'm looking for my friends, looking for my friends 

Now I can't talk, see talk is cheap 

I'm in a no-win situation 

There are no words that I could speak 

That would mend this broken rose 

So here I am on the couch of a friend 

Who submits his observations 

He says love comes and goes 

I've been cut by the rose again 

All the petals have fallen to pieces 

Now I'm left with the thorn and the stem 

I'm out looking for my friends 

Looking for my friends, looking for my friends 

Looking for my friends, looking for my friends 

I'm looking for my friends, looking for my friends
