Stand

So here i stand
alone by the side of the road
and i'm reaching for you
someone to hold, something to cling to
i close my eyes
i shove my hands in my pockets and smile
and the darkness drifts away
i'm at peace, if only once in a while
You don't understand
there's nothing to say
when everything seems lost
you can bet we'll somehow find a way
Well, i'm feeling hurt
and i fought back some tears of my own
but there's something to be said for the ones
who face the darkness alone
you're too cool to care
too self-righteous to see and believe
it's a bond we'll never break
a chance for one more change of heart
You don't understand
there's nothing to say
when everything seems lost
you can bet we'll somehow find a way
Did your ever think about the ones on top
do you have the strength to shout it, ready or not
so, i never thought i'd be the one complaining
but, i can't believe it's been inside me all this time
So here i stand!
