    David Archuleta
    “You're reaching out
    And no one hears you cry
    You're freaking out again
    'Cause all your fears
    Remind you another dream has come undone
    You feel so small and lost like you're the only one
    You wanna scream 'cause you're
    Desperate
    You want somebody, just anybody
    To lay their hands on your soul tonight
    You want a reason to keep believin'
    That someday you're gonna see the light
    You're in the dark
    There's no one left to call
    And sleep's your only friend
    Well even sleep
    Can't hide you from all those tears
    And all the pain and all the days
    You wasted pushin' them away
    It's your life, it's time you face it ”
    David Archuletta
