Are You There? Lyrics by Gerard Canonico, Taylor Trensch

Bare: the Musical

0

[MATT]
Do you know—well, of course you do
What it's like to stand outside?
To watch the world and wish you didn't
Hurt so much, you cried
I know I'm not the only one
And I know I shouldn't care
But what I feel, these things are real
I wish I felt you there
And if I did, I'd ask you:
How come life is so unfair?
[PETER]
Do you know—well, of course you do
What it's like to be afraid
That nothing will become of all
The plans that you have made?
I pass him in the hallways and I don't know what to say
So close that I could touch him
But a million miles away
He broke my heart so badly
But I'd take him back today
[MATT & PETER]
Are you there? Are you there?
Do you watch me when I cry?
And if it's in your power
How can you sit idly by?
I try so hard to please you
But you never seem to see
[MATT]
Is it my fate to sit and wait?
[PETER]
Wonder what my struggle means?
[MATT]
I wish I knew that someone out there cared
[PETER]
Are you there?
[MATT & PETER]
Cared for me
[MATT]
He's with her
I see them holding hands and I want to call her name
[PETER]
Something went wrong somewhere but I don't know who to blame
He's always on my mind!
[MATT]
I swear, I see her in my dreams
A glance in my direction and I'm dancing with extreme
[PETER]
Letting go of holding on
It's harder than it seems
[MATT]
Harder than it seems!
[MATT & PETER]
Are you there? Are you there?
Can you make some time for me?
They tell me that you're out there
And they tell me that you see
I've tried to find the meaning, God
You know how hard I tried
But I don't know where I'm going and I don't have any guide
[MATT]
They said things would get better
But I guess they lied
[PETER]
Are you there?
[MATT & PETER]
What did I do wrong?
Tell me and I'll fix it
Get us back where we belong
One day (s)he'll wake up and realize
All (s)he needs is me!
[MATT}
Until then, God, I wish I knew
I need a guarantee
[PETER]
I need to know for sure that you'll be there
[MATT]
Send a sign so that I know you're there
[PETER & MATT]
There for me
[MATT]
Send a sign so that I know you're there
[PETER]
Send a sign so that I know you're there
[PETER & MATT]
There for me
