FOR A FRIEND

He's been looking for a way to escape reality So many years he spent inside the sanctuary Praying and hoping for the one thing that he ever wanted As soon as things were looking up, it started crashing on him Like what were you expecting from him? He's losing his purpose He feels defeated and he feels his life is kind of worthless Can't you see that he just wants to be respected and loved But everybody around don't seem to give a- You know what I was going to say You don't see him anyway He thought about leaving Earth almost everyday He thought "What if something happened, would they be ok? Or are they better off though I didn't even stay?" When he was younger, he always wanted someone to love But now he's older, realized how it's all messed up He's the big 2-1 but sees him giving up Though he's telling everyone he knows to trust in God I tried And I tried Not to change The person I was But I live And I die But I don't know what's the cause Tell me where were you? When I needed love I don't have anyone So tell me where were you? (Where were you) So where were you when he needed you the most? He wrote a couple songs, least you could do, listen close He was calling out for help, falling as a Christian He was the woman at the well, and nobody listened He never saw himself ever being the type to party Yet, there he is at the scene looking for a barbie Doesn't believe in love, he's just tryna hook up He's becoming the man that he's always been afraid of Things are building up, at any moment he can go So if you see him, tell him you love him or he'll leave home Cause he already feels, as if he's six feet down below You can read it on his face but, yet nobody knows I tried And I tried Not to change The person I was But I live And I die But I don't know what's the cause (Where were you)
