INFORMATION SOCIETY - Are 'friends' Electric? 2. 0 lyrics

rate me

It's cold outside

And the paint's peeling off my walls

There's a man outside

In a long coat gray hair smoking a cigarette

Now the light fades out

And I wonder what I'm doing in a room like this

There's a knock on the door

And just for a second I thought I remembered you

So now I'm alone

And I can think for myself

About little deals and s.u.'s

And things I just don't understand

Like a white lie that night

Or a sly touch at times

I don't think it meant anything to you

So I open the door

It's the friend that I'd left in the hallway

Please sit down

A candle-lit shadow on the wall near the bed

You know I hate to ask

But are friends electric?

Only

Mine's broken down

And now I've no one to love

So I found out your reasons

For the phone calls and smiles

And it hurts and I'm lonely

And I should never have tried

And I missed you tonight

So it's time to leave

You see this meant everything to me
