Where were you when I was broken? When I was learning not everybody's nice Where were you when I was empty? When I had no one else to turn to for advice I'm not angry anymore for what you did But who does that to a kid You love me when it's easy You love me when it looks good to your friends You love me when you need me Or anytime the spotlights on again And it's been this way my whole life Sometimes it feels like You only love me for the highlights Where were you when I was sleepless? Watching streetlights turning off Cause you were there for birthday cakes And had a smile on your face but Where were you when I was lost? I won't blame you for the person I've become But you made it hard to trust someone You love me when it's easy You love me when it looks good to your friends You love me when you need me Or anytime the spotlights on again And it's been this way my whole life Sometimes it feels like You only love me for the highlights Do you ever wish you stayed? (Wish you stayed) Do you ever turn around? (Turn around) Do you ever wish you knew The person I am now?
