There for You

Lyrics

When it all went down
 And the pain came through
 I get it now
 I was there for you
 Don't ask me how
 I know it's true
 I get it now
 I was there for you
 I make my plans
 Like I always do
 But when I look back
 I was there for you
 I walk the streets
 Like I used to do
 And I freeze with fear
 But I'm there for you
 I see my life
 In full review
 It was never me
 It was always you
 ♪
 You sent me here
 You sent me there
 Breaking things
 I can't repair
 Making objects
 Out of thought
 Making more than
 By thinking not
 Eating food
 And drinking wine
 A body that
 I thought was mine
 Dressed as Arab
 Dressed as Jew
 O mask of iron
 I was there for you
 Moods of glory
 Moods so foul
 The world comes through
 A bloody towel
 And death is old
 But it's always new
 I freeze with fear
 And I'm there for you
 I see it clear
 I always knew
 It was never me
 I was there for you
 I was there for you
 My darling one
 And by your law
 
 It all was done
 ♪
 Don't ask me how
 I know it's true
 I get it now
 I was there for you
 Don't ask me how
 I know it's true
 I get it now
 I was there for you
 Don't ask me how
 I know it's true
 I get it now
 I was there for you
 Don't ask me how
 I know it's true
 I get it now
 I was there for you
