Your life dreams are shattered   You're gone away   We've cried here for hours   And the hours turn to days      We know you regret this   Leaving us here   With portraits and memories   That we've held so dear      When I hear your name, it's not the same   No matter what they say, I'm not okay   And we started at zero and went different ways   Now we're all out here wasting away      And if we started at zero   Then how did things change?   It seems like just yesterday   We were the same      It's been three months since you left us   So far nothing's been the same   And my question without answer   Is am I the one to blame?      And he was such a good description   Of a favored future man   He spoke well of other people   And they said the same for him      When I hear your name, it's not the same   No matter what they say, I'm not okay   And we started at zero and went different ways   Now we're all out here wasting away      And if we started at zero   Then how did things change?   Feels like just yesterday   We were the same, we were the same      They say they're sorry   Well, what are they sorry for?   How can they possible know   What I'm going through?   I feel like no one's ever had to deal with the pain   That I'm dealing with right now      Just six months ago   Everything was fine or so it seemed   What turn of event   Caused him to go downhill?      His parents are devastated   His girlfriend's depressed   What was he thinking?      And we started at zero   And went different ways   Now we're all out here   Wasting away, wasting away   Wasting away, wasting away      And we started at zero   And went different ways   Now we're all out here wasting away      And if we started at zero   Then how did things change?   Seems like just yesterday   We were the same   We were the same   We were the same
