Where were you when I needed someone to talk to?
Where were you when I felt so alone?
Where were you when I really needed you the most?
Where were you when I needed help?
Where were you?

I was there when your great-grandpa died.
I was there when you were sick.
I was there when you felt overwhelmed.
I was there always supporting you.
I was always there.

Well, I guess you aren't the friend I thought you were...
