The Question

Hey, I hope you're good
Um, nice to hear your voice note yesterday
I was thinking, it's also good to be missing your city, you know?
Maybe you know you found your place, you know?
Um, I just arrived at JFK

Moon-beaming in the parking lot
The vampires link up in the corridors
Said that she knows a spot
We can get a little late night ambience
Comes from a slower town
Where there's not a lot of options to go around
But she could never settle down, no

So here we are and now I'm feeling the tension
I make an impression
She asks me the question and I said (I said)

Well, I guess it depends
Will you love me 'til the end?
When all the lights go out
Will you turn them on again?
'Cause I don't need a friend
I got enough of them (Of them)
If I tell you what I want (I want)
Then you won't have to pretend (Pretend)
'Cause I don't need a friend

Moved to the city when you found a job
The work kinda sucks but it pays a lot
The money came in and you spent it all
On a one bedroom in a shady spot
Asked why I always hang around so late
Well, you never see the sun here anyway
And the air's thick enough for the sky to scrape

You started laughing now I'm feeling the tension
I make an impression
You ask me the question and I said (I said)

Well, I guess it depends
Will you love me 'til the end?
And when all the lights go out
Will you turn them on again?
'Cause I don't need a friend
I got enough of them (Of them)
If I tell you what I want (I want)
Then you won't have to pretend (Pretend)
'Cause I don't need a ****

'Cause I don't need a friend (Yeah)
