VERSE 2 : No-one to turn to, you know how it is I was not prepared for something like this Now I see them clearly, the things that I miss Oh baby, I feel so bad, I know I'm never gonna make it I got my business to help me through the day People I must write to, bills I must pay But everything's so different when night's on its way It's bad, oh, so bad
