Another lonely murder You watch the sun bleed out red As you go round to the start You've caught up on your reading And you're fresh out of books On the shelf that you've made of your heart.
You can ask all the people That you still call your friends But you just get the same old excuse You've been alone in a crowd Talking to yourself 'Til you walk away thinking 'what's the use?'
I want someone close to me As far as I can see I want someone close to me No one wants this life I lead
I want someone close to me It's my plan for unity I want someone close to me I can't stand the irony
So you walk up the stairs To your mold-covered flat And tune out the world again You've been pushing away Everyone you can't trust 'Cuz they've all become fairweather friends.
When you look back in time To the days when you had people Everywhere you wanted to go The solution my friend Is to tell everyone From the start what they need to know.
I want someone close to me Someone who respects me I want someone close to me Who can stand the sight of me
I want someone close to me Is it such an arduous task? I want someone close to me Is it too much to ask?
Maybe it used to be too easy And you've lost the feel for it You could have been someone else If you hadn't climbed down into the thick of it.
If you really think about The way you see the whole world now You'd see... a ball of hurt covered in scabs That you can't heal... 'cuz you don't know how.
I want someone close to me I want someone close to me
I want someone close to me You don't even have to be true I want someone close to me Feel free to turn the screw.
I want someone close to me Do I really have to beg? I want someone close to me The things I do to get a little leg...

Another lonely murder
You watch the sun bleed out red
As you go round to the start
You've caught up on your reading
And you're fresh out of books
On the shelf that you've made of your heart.
You can ask all the people
That you still call your friends
But you just get the same old excuse
You've been alone in a crowd
Talking to yourself
'Til you walk away thinking 'what's the use?'
I want someone close to me
As far as I can see
I want someone close to me
No one wants this life I lead
I want someone close to me
It's my plan for unity
I want someone close to me
I can't stand the irony
So you walk up the stairs
To your mold-covered flat
And tune out the world again
You've been pushing away
Everyone you can't trust
'Cuz they've all become fairweather friends.
When you look back in time
To the days when you had people
Everywhere you wanted to go
The solution my friend
Is to tell everyone
From the start what they need to know.
I want someone close to me
Someone who respects me
I want someone close to me
Who can stand the sight of me
I want someone close to me
Is it such an arduous task?
I want someone close to me
Is it too much to ask?
Maybe it used to be too easy
And you've lost the feel for it
You could have been someone else
If you hadn't climbed down into the thick of it.
If you really think about
The way you see the whole world now
You'd see... a ball of hurt covered in scabs
That you can't heal... 'cuz you don't know how.
I want someone close to me
I want someone close to me
I want someone close to me
You don't even have to be true
I want someone close to me
Feel free to turn the screw.
I want someone close to me
Do I really have to beg?
I want someone close to me
The things I do to get a little leg...
