Tekst piosenki
[Intro]
When I’m filled up with fear
I really need you here
When I’m so fucking lost
You always save my spot
When I’m hurting deep down
You pick me off the ground
I’m screaming „I need you right now”
[Chorus]
I don’t need anybody
You are my only friend
The only one who matters
Everyone else is good as dead
To me, you’re the only thing I need
I don’t need anybody
You are my only friend
[Verse 1]
Without knowing it was only me
People are fake and phony
Without knowing you have shown me
You make my life much less lonely
[Chorus]
I don’t need anybody
You are my only friend
The only one who matters
Everyone else is good as dead
To me, you’re the only thing I need
I don’t need anybody
You are my only friend
[Verse 2]
I like it the way people act so fake
Why do they lie straight up to my face?
I just say „no, thanks” while I walk away
People fill my heart with so much hate
I get mad a lot, people piss me off
They don’t ever admit when they’re wrong
I would love to talk to you all night long
In an empty world where they are gone
[Chorus]
I don’t need anybody
You are my only friend
The only one who matters
Everyone else is good as dead
To me, you’re the only thing I need
I don’t need anybody
You are my only friend
[Bridge]
When I’m filled up with fear
I really need you here
When I’m so fucking lost
You always save my spot
When I’m hurting deep down
You pick me off the ground
I’m screaming „I need you right now”
[Interlude]
Da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da
[Chorus]
I don’t need anybody
You are my only friend
The only one who matters
Everyone else is good as dead
To me, you’re the only thing I need
I don’t need anybody
You are my only friend
Tłumaczenie piosenki
Analiza piosenki
W tekście bardzo wyraźnie widać kontrast między poczuciem zagubienia, lęku i gniewu wobec innych ludzi, a idealizacją tej jednej relacji, która ma dawać stabilność i ratunek. To nie jest tylko klasyczna piosenka o przyjaźni, ale raczej obraz psychicznego stanu zawężenia świata do jednej więzi, która przejmuje rolę całego systemu wsparcia. W szerszym kontekście, zgodnie z informacjami o utworze jako otwierającym album „Love You Madly Hate You Badly”, można go też odczytać jako wprowadzenie do tematu skrajnych emocji, zależności i ambiwalencji w relacjach międzyludzkich.
