Where were you when I needed you?
The countless nights spent in despair
Where were you when I needed you?
Hoping and waiting for you to answer my prayers
Where were you when I needed you?
Through all of the fights, the chaos, and fear
Where were you when I needed you?
The depth of your absence soon became crystal clear
Where were you when I needed you?
During a rearing that was fraught with deception and lies
Where were you when I needed you?
The biggest of all was that I’d finally meet you when I died
Where were you when I needed you?
I studied your words and practiced your ways
Where were you when I needed you?
Yet you were always so distant, so far away
Where were you when I needed you?
As a terrified child, left alone in the dark
Where were you when I needed you?
Left alone on my journey, on which I now embark
Where were you when I needed you?
I was angry and bitter, because I thought you didn’t care
Where were you when I needed you?
I know now that there was never a you, because you were never there
