Stanfour - Desperate

You're reachin' out

And no one hears you cry

You're freakin' out again

Cause all your fears remind you

C G

Another dream, has come undone

You feel so small and lost

F C

Like you're the only one

You wanna scream

Cause you're desperate

F C

You want somebody just anybody

G F

To lay their hands on your soul tonight

You want a reason

To keep believin'

That someday

You're gonna see the light

It's 3a.m.

There's no one left to call

And sleep's your only friend

But even sleep can't hide you

C G

From all those tears, And all the pain

Am F

And all those years you wasted Pushing them away

G F

You're goin´down, It's time you face it

To keep believin'

That someday

You're gonna see the light
