All my life I have stood behind Never the first thought on anyone's mind Always sitting here alone I've got no messages on my phone As I look into the light I don't see too much that is right Why is there so much pain? A thought that is always on my brain I've stopped a dozen suicides I've seen through a million lies I can see what you really feel I know what is really real I've fed the homeless And given hope to the hopeless I don't try to be Jesus But I care about the least of us I'm really far from good But I try to do as is should I never hold on to any friend's But I always try to make amends I help them through their strife But in the end it's not my life I'm returned to myself Content to sit as a picture on a shelf When I need someone to lean my shoulder on Why are they always so far gone It always hurts but I don't know why When did I become the catcher in the rye?
