There goes a friend of mine
He wants to be me
And then another one
Just wants to see me

And everybody else
Say that they know me
Sometimes the bottom line
Tries to control me

I can't help you
I can't save you
I can't be your one and only friend

Someone who wants to hang
Tries to inflate me
When I don't go along
She wants to hate me
And when I give a smile
They want to take me
So I just try to give
Some of the fake me

I can't help you
I can't save you
I can't be your one and only friend

And when it's said and done
I want to leave it
But I can't seem to get
Me to believe it
I want to help you out
But I ain't got it
You should have checked the price
Before you bought it

I can't help you
I can't save you
I can't even seem to save myself

I can't help you
I can't save you
I can't be your one and only friend
