He sits at home, waiting by the telephone,
He's all alone,
Staring at photos of old friends
That he used to know,
Heart is broken, scars split open,
Whiskey glass hits the ground
He couldn't turn things around,
Praying to god for a way out
I miss you, Where are you now?
It wasn't meant to be like this,
I know that you need me now,
Shouldn't leave things like we did
She stays out late,
Shooting up another dose of liquid hate,
Drowning out her conscience
As the drug begins to permeate
Far from home, on her own,
In a city with no soul
The streets were paved with gold,
Losing herself in what she sold
The sun comes up,
Showing where the make-ups run down her face,
Asking how she got here,
What did she do to make her lose her way,
Too hungry to sleep,
Too tired to eat,
She runs into the ground
She couldn't turn things around,
Praying to god for a way out
I miss you, Where are you now?
It wasn't meant to be like this,
I know that you need me now,
Shouldn't leave things like we did
I've made my mistakes,
And I'm here again
To say I should have done my best to try and understand
You're not alone
You're not alone
Everyone has their own trials to face,
Where we're dreaming of better days,
Where the shadows are creeping in,
But you've got people to help you through,
And sometimes they'll need you too
Some times you've just got to say...
I know you need me somehow
I miss you, Where are you now?
It wasn't meant to be like this,
I know that you need me now,
Shouldn't leave things like we did
I've made my mistakes,
And I'm here again
To say I should have done my best to try and understand
You're not alone
You're not alone
For every person that's out there in pain,
There's someone else out there that's just too afraid,
To put down their anger,
Their pride and their hate,
And reach out, forgive,
And help them be saved,
He who fears that he shall suffer,
Already suffers what he fears,
Your friend, your family,
Your enemy, your adversary
Nothing's set in stone
Impossible is temporary
