I walked through the city limits, Someone talked me in to do it, Attracted by some force within it, Had to close my eyes to get close to it, Around a corner where a prophet lay, Saw the place where she'd a room to stay, A wire fence where the children played. Saw the bed where the body lay, And I was looking for a friend of mine. And I had no time to waste. Yeah, looking for some friends of mine. The cars screeched hear the sound on dust, Heard a noise just a car outside, Metallic blue turned red with rust, Pulled in close by the building's side, In a group all forgotten youth, Had to think, collect my senses now, Are turned on to a knife edged view. Find some places where my friends don't know, And I was looking for a friend of mine. And I had no time to waste. Yeah, looking for some friends of mine. Down the dark streets, the houses looked the same, Getting darker now, faces look the same, And I walked round and round. No stomach, torn apart, Nail me to a train, Had to think again, Trying to find a clue, trying to find a way to get out! Trying to move away, had to move away and keep out. Four, twelve windows, ten in a row, Behind a wall, well I looked down low, The lights shined like a neon show, Inserted deep felt a warmer glow, No place to stop, no place to go, No time to lose, had to keep on going, I guessed they died some time ago. I guessed they died some time ago. And I was looking for a friend of mine. And I had no time to waste. Yeah, looking for some friends of mine
