You did your best today
But you lost the race
You almost felt proud
Before you saw everyone's face
Laugh it off to look tough
Pretend to be okay
You've got the look down
After so many rough days
Ain't life funny, and ain't life sad
And I ain't even got it that bad
When I see you on the bench like that
I'll sit next to you
And we'll never lose
Oh-oh-oh, when you're far from home
I'll be there for you when you're all alone
All alone we'll be together, we won't be scared
'Cause I know how it feels when nobody cares
When you pour your heart out onto a piece of paper and you give it your all
When you're climbing up a mountain and there's no one to catch you if you fall
You're tired of freezing out in the cold so you build up your wall, but you oughta know
Yeah you oughta know
Oh-oh-oh, when you're far from home
I'll be there for you when you're all alone
All alone we'll be together, we won't be scared
'Cause I know how it feels when nobody cares
You're the one no one sees walking home in the rain
When they drive on past, getting you soaked and muddy and angry and in pain
You brought your umbrella but you gave it away
To the pretty face who parked in the space ten feet away but that you needed to look your way
Maybe the reason you keep letting the world let you down
Is you're waiting for the day when all that karma comes back around
Never gonna happen, least that's what I've found
Well to hell with that, you've got a friend when I'm around
Oh-oh-oh, when you're far from home
I'll be there for you when you're all alone
All alone we'll be together, we won't be scared
'Cause I know how it feels when nobody cares
Oh-oh-oh, when you're far from home
I'll be there for you when you're all alone
All alone we'll be together, we won't be scared
'Cause I know how it feels when nobody cares
When you dress to impress but no one gives a f*ck, I'll be there
When you try your best but still it's not enough, I'll be there
When you've had a bad day, a bad week, a bad month, I'll be there
'Cause I know how it feels when nobody cares
