Are You There?

[MATT, PETER, MATT & PETER]
(sung)
Do You know
Well, of course You do
What it's like to stand outside?
To watch the world and wish
You didn't hurt so much, you cried
I know I'm not the only one
And I know I shouldn't care
But I feel these things are real
I wish I felt You there
And if I did, I'd ask You
How come life is so unfair?

Do You know—
Well, of course You do
What it's like to be afraid
That nothing will become of all
The plans that you have made?
So I watch the girls surround him
And he says it's just a game
I guess that I believe him
But it hurts me just the same
And I'm all about this stupid act
So who am I to blame?

Are You there? Are You there?
Do You watch me when I cry?
And if it's in Your power
How can You sit idly by?
I've tried so hard to please You
But you never seem to see

Is it my fate to sit and wait?
Wonder what my struggle means?
I wish I knew that someone out there cared
Are You there?
Cared for me (There for me)

(spoken)
Who's out there?
Matt?
Yeah, are you alright?
I'm fine

(sung)
Here, have some wine
This is holy wine
Father hasn't blessed it yet
In that case
Grab a chalice
Thanks, life sucks
Here, have the rest
So why'd you leave?
The party?
Yeah
I was getting kind of bored
Me too
There's another reason
Yeah?
It sucks to be ignored
I know
I always fight to do what's right
And this is my reward
This is my reward

Are You there? Are You there?
Can You make some time for me?
They tell me that You're out there
And they tell me that You see
I try to find the meaning, God
You know how hard I've tried
But I don't know where I'm going
And I don't have any guide

They said things would get better
But I guess they lied
Are You there?
He needs to give me more
I'll drink to that

Who cares what people think?
We're fine
We've been through this before
One day he'll wake up
And realize all he needs is me
Until then, God, I wish I knew
I need a guarantee

I need to know for sure that You'll be there
Send a sign so that I know You're there
There for me

(spoken)
Who is leading?
I don't know
Well, who usually leads?

(Peter whispers in Matt's ear)

Look, I'm going to bed
I'll catch you later, alright?
