There are some songs that don’t just sound beautiful — they give words to something many people carry quietly.
“I Could Use a Friend” by Billy Lockett is one of those.
In my work, I often sit with people who are holding so much together on the outside, while feeling alone underneath it all. Not because they don’t have people around them, but because it can feel hard to say out loud: “I’m struggling” or “I need someone.”
What stands out in this song is the quiet strength in that admission.
Reaching for connection isn’t weakness. It’s human.
And sometimes, it’s the first step toward feeling less alone.
If this resonates with you, and you ever find yourself in that space — that’s what I’m here for. Not as a friend, but as someone who can listen with empathy and professional support. You’re not alone in those feelings and you're certainly not a burden.
And to Billy Lockett — it was an absolute pleasure to hear your music live and to meet you. Thank you!
