Singer: The Fray

When everything is falling apart

We don't know when.

Together at all times.

When you're young you just gotta know,
What it's all about.
Then you're old with your head full of memories
You could do without.
When you're young, you're sure to know
What is the meaning of life.
And then you get older and keep
Memories, without which you do not see this meaning.

Help me stand,
Even if the sky is falling.
Help me up,
Even if the sky will fall.

Be the one and only.
Be the one and only.

But in the end everyone ends up alone
Losing her, the only one who's ever known
Who I am, who I'm not and who I wanna to be
No way to know how long she will be next to me
But in the end, all left alone,
Losing her, the only one that knew.
Who am I and who is not, and who I would like to be?
And no one knows how long she will be with me.

He will do one of two things
He will admit to everything
Or he'll say he's just not the same
And you'll begin to wonder why you came
He'll step in one direction only:
He recognizes
Or just say that you are not a couple
And you start thinking, what the hell are you even doing this.

Where were you when everything was falling apart.
All my days were spent by the telephone that never rang
And all I needed was a call that never came.
Where were you when everything was falling apart?
I spent day after day on the phone that never rang,
And all that I needed to call, which was not.

No one expects you to get up
All on your own with no one around
No one expects you to get up.
All in your hands, because there was no one around.

In the night, I hear them talk
The coldest story ever told
Somewhere far along this road he lost his soul
To a woman so heartless.
Dark night I hear them talk,
A chilling story.
Somewhere in there honey, he sold his soul
To a woman so heartless.

Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness.
What did I do wrong? I lost a friend
Somewhere in the bitterness of this life.

Do not get me wrong I cannot wait for you to come home
For now you're not here and I'm not there, it's like we're on our own
To figure it out consider how to find a place to stand
Instead of walking away and instead of nowhere to land
This is gonna to break me clean in two
This is gonna to bring me close to you
She is everything I need that I never knew I wanted
She is everything I want that I never knew I needed
Don't get me wrong, but I can't wait for you to come back.
Now, when you're not here, and I'm not with you, it seems that we each of us by himself.
To realize this, think how to find a place to stay
Instead of always having to leave without his piece of land.
It will split me in half,
It will take me to you...
She's all I need, all my desires, which I did not know.
She's all I need, all my desires, which I did not know.

I found God on the corner of 1st and Amistad
Where the West was all but one
All alone, smoking his last cigarette
I said, "Where ve you been?" He said, "Ask anything."
I met God on the corner of First and Amistad,
Where were all the West, except one.
All alone, domareva last cigarette,
I asked "Where have you been?", he said, "Ask anything."
