You Were There

You Were There written by Jess (June 08)

Thought I could never escape this black hole
Felt lost and empty in the dark and cold
Thought I could never stand up
Revive from this darkness around me
Thought I could never get rid
Of this numbness inside me

But there were you
You brought light, warmth and hope back to me
You gave me strength
When I thought I couldn’t make it
You were there
When I needed you the most

It’s only after those tumbling events
I realize
I don’t have to get through things alone
Because you are there

Broken family, broken heart
It doesn’t matter
Because it’s with you
Where I feel at home

It’s with you
Where I can be myself
Because you take me as I am

May it be fate or not
that our paths crossed
I’m very thankful to call you my friends
Because without you
I’d be still sitting in the dark
Alone



This is a text I wrote in June 08 after the new record of 3 Doors Down was released. The lyrics of this record really inspired me to write this. I wrote it for my friends who were always there for me.

And today I feel that I have to thank again.. 'cause you're the ones who always build me up when I'm not feeling well!

"In this ever changing days.. you're the one thing that remains" (Chris Daughtry - Feels Like Tonight)
