Lyrics: Skye Sweetnam. I've Been There Too.

You say
Nobody cares about me
No one could possibly see
The pain I'm in
Where do I begin?

To tell you the things in my heart
I don't know where to start
Or where to end
Are you my friend?

I understand where you've been
I've been there too
I know just what you've been through
You know I do
If I don't know
Then I'll try
To feel your pain
To hold your hand
To be your friend

You say
No one could possibly see
Who I really am, who I meant to be
It's me
Why can't you see?

It's not in the clothes that I wear
Or the purple streaks running through
My hair
Don't you know
That's all for sure

I understand where you've been
I've been there too
I know just what you've been through
You know I do

If I don't know
Then I'll try
To feel your pain
To hold your hand
To be your friend

I understand where you've been
I've been there too
I know just what you've been through
You know I do
If I don't know
Then I'll try
To feel your pain
To hold your hand
To be your friend

I'm telling you

I understand where you've been
I've been there too
I know just what you've been through
You know I do
If I don't know
Then I'll try
To erase your pain
To hold your hand
To be your friend
To be your friend

I'll be your friend
