J Mascis - Friends lyrics

[Verse 1] I need a hand, I need a hand Can you understand, I got no plan Looking for a new brochure Just staring in the sand [Verse 2] In my defense, in my defense I feel intense, it all makes no sense I'm the one who runs in circles Tell me how it went [Verse 3] I wanted you to make it slow I wanna have a hand to hold Now it's stuck in my throat Wishing that I'd blow [Verse 4] I try and try and get nowhere I can't avoid and I can't stare It's not my only thought But I can't give it up [Verse 5] I've been away, I've been away I'd like to stay but can't get it straight I saw you running sideways So I hope it's not to late [Verse 6] I wanted you to bring me there Drop me off, you know I'm scared Not sure what I can bring Or if it means a thing [Verse 7] I wondered what I couldn't think I was feeling my heart sink But couldn't shake it off Mind was going soft [Verse 8] If you're here, if you're here And I cruise in fear then disappear Even if you don't see me I promise I'll be near [Verse 9] I wanted you to lose control I wanted you to hear my soul And jumble things I've strained And my goal wasn't reigned [Verse 10] I broke it up to have some space But nothing's falling into place But I can't get upset 'Cause I can't get it yet
