I thought I heard you cryin', I thought I heard you say
an echo in the distance (not so far away
you still don't understand, it's not what you had planned at all
and you used to think you had a reason, but you don't recall

You were banking on it, accounts are overdrawn
you heard someone singing but it was not your song
a grave beside the cradle, the wound of life is fatal
just when I under stood your pain..it started to rain

Loneliness is scary, and I'm so ordinary
I need someone to help me through
and I am counting years, and I am counting minutes
and I am counting on you
and when the truth appears, its never clear
we're looking through the ashes and the dust
for someone to TRUST

Ain't no point in running, there's no place left to go
there ain't no ancient secrets, there's nothing left to know
and Love is so ironic, you based your life upon it
just a product of the things you have to loose, every time you choose

And you can scream and moan and every thing you own will fade
and every enterprise and all those hollow eyes will say'
GOODBYE

No, I don't understand it, but I don't care no more
I only know I need it, don't even know what for
I had a will of iron, but lately its begun to rust
No I never wanted anything as much
as someone to trust.
