Damocles - Some Velvet Morning

See the sword hang over my head

Tied my fate to the weight of this thread

How in God’s name could we let

These rivers run so red today

Damocles I see what you’ve seen

The price to pay for daring to dream

Accusations everywhere

I won’t play electric chairs today

I need a friend, somebody I can run to

I need a friend just like you

I need a friend, somebody I can talk to

I need a friend like you

There’s a king living in everyone

Gather round bring your gifts or your guns

See the battle up ahead

We can die or fight instead today

I need a friend, somebody I can run to

I need a friend just like you

I need a friend, somebody I can talk to

I need a friend like you

Everybody needs something

Everybody got needs

Everybody needs someone

Everybody got needs

I need a friend, somebody I can run to

I need a friend just like you

I need a friend, somebody I can talk to

I need a friend like you
