[Hook x2: Sufjan Stevens]
Love
Take me to your room
I want to be your friend
[Verse 1, Sufjan]
Will you walk me home at night?
Will you send me showers of light?
I want to be your friend
Will you kiss me on the lips?
Will you fill my lunar eclipse?
I want to be your friend
Will you touch me in the car?
Will you say that I am your star?
I want to be your friend
Will you keep me safe from harm?
Will you hold me close in your arms?
I want to be your friend
[Hook x2]
[Verse 2]
And I have no appetite
And I can not sleep through the night
I want to be your friend
I've got pictures in my head
My own thought of you in my bed
I want to be your friend
With terror you may find
For I fear I'm losing my mind
I want to be your friend
And my heart is such a mess
And I feel that I am possessed
I want to be your friend
[Hook x5]
Love
Take me to your room
I want to be your friend
Will you walk me home at night?
Will you send me showers of light?
I want to be your friend
Will you fill my lunar eclipse?
I want to be your friend
Will you say that I am your star?
I want to be your friend
Will you hold me close in your arms?
I want to be your friend
And I have no appetite
And I can not sleep through the night
I want to be your friend
My own thought of you in my bed
I want to be your friend
For I fear I'm losing my mind
I want to be your friend
And I feel that I am possessed
I want to be your friend

He never says whether the fear of going crazy is because of the "friend'. This song can easily be about falling in love while also struggling with darkness or depression. Beautiful song by Sufjan Stevens.
