The days of the crying faces
And the songs of tears are over
And I wake alone and lonelier than ever

My bravery is taken away
And I have nothing better to do

I’ve been wondering about for a while now
But it hit me today

Does that pain have a name?
Will I see something similar or the same?

The characters in my play
Know where to stand
And plot is getting cliche’d

But I have to see it one more time

I have to see the way we were so lonely and forgotten

The way we cried together
The way we lived thru it together

We knew the songs, they were so sad
Because they were so real

Because it was painful
Because it was all we had

Because that pain, I do know it’s name
Because that won’t change

I’m here, far away, I’m here today
