Where were the stars when I needed them? No doubt behind some vicious cloud And where were your words when I would have heeded them? No doubt wasted on somebody else And all this time I could've been in your arms Instead of out there on those mean avenues And all this time I could've been doing something meaningful Instead of wasting my time on you How do you fight something that can't see? And how do you k** what's already dead? And come to terms with what you might never be But have been for years, if only in your head And all this time I could've been seeing the world Instead of out there on those mean avenues And all this time I could've been working on my dreams Instead of wasting my time on you Instead of wasting my time on you
