[Verse 1]
You've wasted away
Old friend, old friend
I thought that I'd see you
Once again

[Verse 2]
No more decay
Or faith in your name
I have to shout it
Over and over again

[Chorus]
Where were you? Where were you?
Where were you? Where were you?

[Verse 3]
I bite my tongue
And [?]
I speak without sentiment
Or belief

[Verse 4]
I tore out your pages
And put them back
I see your face
On every city street
[Chorus]
Where were you? Where were you?
Where were you? Where were you?
Where were you?

[Verse 5]
Wait I'm breathing
Am I really just skin, bonem and air
Wait I'm breathing
It's the knowing that you won't be there

[Chorus]
Where were you? Where were you?
Where were you? Where were you?
Where were you? Where were you?
