Where were you
When I was barely old enough to remember you
Times were hard, My heart was broken
And every time that I thought of you
I realised you had chosen my brothers over me
And now that I'm old enough to know that seasons change
I hope to hell -- That you'll put me out of my misery
So that I can finaly deal with these pains............
Where were you -- When life cut me down beneath those broken street lights
Where were you -- When the Dr's said I was barely holding onto life
Can't you see that I'm still holding back my demons
In each of these empty glasses that have fallen at my feet,
And now that the seasons are chaging once again my friend
God knows that I've found my bitter end,
And as these old photographs start fading with age
The pages of my life remain blank and jaded
So where the hell were you -- When God called me out by my name......
Maybe I'm trying to save everything that I left
I'd give my life just to watch my boy breathe another breath
And if he choses me over death,
I'm going to be there when he reaches out for me
Even if it means my last breath will bring him back to his feet again..
Where were you -- When life cut me down beneath these broken street lights.

This says to me you are in a reflective mood thinking about past issues which you have not yet come to terms with but life still breathes another day. You tell a story in your lyrics
am seeing you and your guitar behind the mic..RB you really capture the essence of the emotional moment and deliver it with a power that draws in your audience making it appear a very intimate experience.
You better bend down so I can put the crown back babe.
