I know a sad girl hitting my phone at two
Waking me up 'cause she got the blues
Calling my name from up on the roof
What am I trying to say?
I know a sad boy losing his left and right
He could be using a mate tonight
When he be down, he be questioning life
Tell me, what can I do?
(Get down)
Where's your head at?
Where your meds at?
It's proving hard to get somebody just to talk back
She needs a real friend
Not one with fake stories
And I'm trying to understand it, I mean it

Can I make a sad boy turn his head 'round to be mad boy
He needs a place he can breathe, feeling at ease
He needs some real joy
Making excuses to real friends
Faking a smile he can pretend
Then over and over he goes
Nobody knows what's in the deep end
Yeah, I know a sad girl hitting my phone at two
Waking me up 'cause she got the blues
Calling my name from up on the roof
What am I trying to say?
I know a sad boy losing his left and right

(I thought they)
I thought they were faking it, making it all up
But I was mistaking it, taking it all wrong
But this shit is so real man
And now that I can see
How could I have been so blind?
I was oblivious, man, are you serious?
Brushing it off 'cause I hadn't experienced
All that you feel, but I know this is real
Tell me, how do you feel?
