Only Friend
Cub Sport Lyrics

The lyrics to Cub Sport's song "Only Friend" explore themes of isolation, anxiety, and uncertainty in a world that can feel intimidating and disconnected. The opening lines set the scene: "Lookin' at the world/There's not a star and it's intimidatin'/And I'm standing here/Yeah I'm standing here and I'm just waiting." This sense of waiting and uncertainty is amplified throughout the song, with the repetition of the phrase "Waiting til the time is right" and the admission that the singer doesn't know how things will turn out.

The central theme of the song is encapsulated in the repeated refrain: "You're my only friend." Despite the singer's anxiety and fears, there is a sense of comfort and security in this relationship. The lyrics suggest that the singer has considered leaving, but ultimately decides to stay because of their friend. There is a sense of ambiguity in the lyrics, with references to a vague "Him" and the suggestion that the singer might need to go at some point, but the focus remains on the relationship with the friend: "Just writin' to let you know/When you're only friend/You're my only friend."

Overall, "Only Friend" is a deeply personal and introspective song that explores the challenges of navigating a complex and often overwhelming world. Despite the fears and uncertainties expressed in the lyrics, the song ultimately conveys a sense of hope and connection through the central relationship of the singer and their friend.
