I’ve Cried Myself To Sleep
And I’ve Smiled While I Lied
Where The Hell Were You
When I Wished That I Could Die?

I’ve Screamed At The Top Of My Lungs
And Cut Wildly Around
Where The Hell Were You
When My Face Wore A Frown?

I’ve Had Plenty Of Bad Dreams
And My Happiness Has Turned To Steam
Where The Hell Were You
When Aaron Was So Mean?

I Prayed To You So Many Times
And I Hated The Person That Is Me
Where The Hell Were You
When I Needed Self Esteem?

Don&#039;t write your name in the sand, Waves will wash it away<br /> Don&#039;t write your name in the sky, Wind may blow it away<br /> <br /> Write your name in the hearts of the people you come in touch with.<br /> That&#039;s Where it will stay
