Where Were You Lyrics – Citizen Soldier
Where Were You Song Lyrics
[Intro: Jake Segura]
Where were you when I was at my worst?
Wouldn't put me first, that's the part that hurts
That's the part that hurts
[Verse 1: Jake Segura]
Another call unanswered has got me losing sleep
And now I'm questioning were you ever listening?
You know me more than most do and that's what cuts so deep
When I needed you there, you didn't seem to care
[Pre-Chorus: Jake Segura]
I showed you all my demons, when I was out of reasons
Am I an inconvenience?
[Chorus: Jake Segura]
Where were you when I was at my worst?
Wouldn't put me first, that's the part that hurts
Where were you when I was scared to trust, still I opened up?
Guess I'm just too much (Guess I'm just too much)
It could've been, could've been life or death
I tried but I'll never forget
Where were you?
Where were you?
[Post-Chorus: Jake Segura]
Where were you?
[Verse 2: Jake Segura]
This was so one-sided 'cause when you needed me
I'd never hesitate but that don't reciprocate
So don't you dare deny it, the trust that you betrayed
Words can't articulate, the toll it took on me
[Pre-Chorus: Jake Segura]
I showed you all my demons, when I was out of reasons
I'm nowhere close to healing
[Chorus: Jake Segura]
Where were you when I was at my worst?
Wouldn't put me first, that's the part that hurts
Where were you when I was scared to trust, still I opened up?
Guess I'm just too much (Guess I'm just too much)
It could've been, could've been life or death
I tried but I'll never forget
Where were you?
Where were you?
[Bridge: Jake Segura]
When I was lost and fighting thoughts screaming to end the pain
Where were you, where were you?
When I was told you'd help me cope you lied, you never came
Where were you, where were you?
[Chorus: Jake Segura]
Where were you when I was at my worst?
Wouldn't put me first, that's the part that hurts
Where were you when I was scared to trust, still I opened up?
Guess I'm just too much (Guess I'm just too much)
It could've been, could've been life or death
I tried but I'll never forget
Where were you?
Where were you?
[Outro: Jake Segura]
Where were you?
Where were you?
