But I never faced it
                  Instead, fight what I've seen
                  I tried to have an open mind
              That kept becoming clouded by reality
                In spite of what I might be told
                I can tell when something's wrong
              I keep on praying what over and over
                      Can only last so long

                   We never lost the closeness
                      It became a matter of
                        A life of verity
                 Perhaps what we had shared most
                    Was a sense of emptiness
                  That seemed to fill our needs
                In spite of what I might be told
                I can tell when something's wrong
              I keep on praying what over and over
                      Can only last so long

             Move along move along and lose a friend
        Just as well, just as well we've reached the end
                     Ah, things have changed

                  I think I'm done with trying
                       I don't understand
                 Or maybe I understand too well
                     But then that emptiness
             I thought was gone comes back sometimes
                    And drops me in it's well
                In spite of what I might be told
                I can tell when something's wrong
              I keep on praying what over and over
                      Can only last so long
