In the midst of my life I try to come up
With one thine I am totally sure of
None ever come to mind no matter how hard I try
And I sit at the bar with all the guys
All there for one thing or another
Drinking away the pain, the joy, the confusion
Thinking is inevitable to the process
I just want one safe thought to hold onto
I just want a little security, a little regularity
No one is there for me no one ever is
I am stuck here with nowhere to go
Trying to frantically put together my puzzle
The jigsaw I see as and call my life
Just stay and say you care that's all I need
Why is everything to good to be true?
Hope has been deserted and lost for awhile
I wonder at times if I can love it's been so long
Blank pieces of paper have your name written on them
You've become the shadow of all my sunny days
I rely upon the support you render out
Strike if you must, but come back
