Never Before By John Carter

Oh, why
Why do I feel so alone
Oh, why
Why can't I call this place home?

Surrounded by the people
And the places that I know
But feeling so entangled
And I've got nothing to show

All this effort
All this trying
All this time spent
On all this crying

Never before
Have I known myself
Never before
Was it so clear

All I ever wanted
Was someone to call my own
All I ever needed
Was a place to call my home
Never before...

Oh, why
Why can't I breathe?
Oh, why
Why can't I force myself to grieve?

Surrounded by the life
I built upon the things I know
But watching it all crumble
Now I've got nothing to show

All this effort
All this trying
All this time spent
On all this crying

Never before
Have I known myself
Never before
Was it so clear

All I ever wanted
Was someone to call my own
All I ever needed
Was a place to call my home
Never before...
