[Verse 1]

I walked through the city limits

Attracted by some force within it

Around a corner where a prophet lay

A wire fence where the children played

[Chorus]

And I was looking for a friend of mine

Yeah, looking for a friend of mine

[Verse 2]

The cars screeched hear the sound on dust

Metallic blue turned red with rust

Stood apart all forgotten youth

Turned on to a knife edged view

[Chorus]

And I was looking for a friend of mine

Yeah, looking for a friend of mine

[Break]

Down the dark streets, the houses looked the same

And I walked round and round

Nail me to a train

Had to get away

Trying to find a way to get out!

[Verse 3]

Four twelve windows, ten in a row

The lights shine - an unearthly glow

No place to stop, no place to go

I guess they died some time ago

[Chorus]

And I was looking for some friends of mine

(And I had no time to waste)

Yeah, looking for some friends of mine
