"needed you" lyrics

This built-up bitterness is turning into anger fast
And I have so many questions that I've been meaning to ask
Why do some people get everything they need
And when did God decide that that wasn't for me
I need someone's help cause I'm starting to turn cold
How does someone so close become someone you don't know
Why does everyone else have a place that they call home
And at my darkest I had nowhere else to go

Where were you when I needed
Where were you when I cried
Where were you when I just needed comfort and advice
Where were you when I had nowhere else to go
Where were you when I needed, needed you

If there's a reason please let me know
And why does she get everything I don't
I'll try and pretend it doesn't hurt so
No one can see that I'm jealous and cold
I need someone's help cause I'm starting to let go
How can someone who raised you become someone that you never talk to
I needed you
But when I was at my darkest, I had nowhere else to go

Where were you when I needed
Where were you when I cried
Where were you when I just needed comfort and advice
Where were you when I had nowhere else to go
Where were you when I needed, needed you
Where were you on all the best days of my life
And on the worst ones when I wanted to die
I look at them and realize they'll never feel the pain
Of looking at someone you love
And having to say

Where were you when I needed
Where were you when I cried
Where were you when I just needed comfort and advice
Where were you when I had nowhere else to go
Where were you when I needed, I needed you
Where were you when I needed
Where were you when I cried
Where were you when I just needed comfort and advice
Where were you when I had nowhere else to go
Where were you when I needed, needed you
I needed you
I fucking needed you
I needed you
I really needed you
