When I've had a long & rough day,
and I need someone to console...

When the world is on my shoulders,
and I need some time alone...

When I feel the need to talk,
and no one seems to listen...

When silence is maddening me,
and I'm consumed by attrition...

When I should be chasing my dreams,
and saying goodbye to yesterday...

When I wonder if I can go on,
and I think I've found a way...
