Your voice has cradled me to sleep for twenty years or somethin'
A friend that lives in the TV
To them you'd never be a person with a drinking problem
You're just a man behind the screen
And I was jealous that Joey was your roommate
But in the real world, you just lived by yourself
And by the time someone found you, it was too late
It got too much, and you chose Heaven over Hell
So when the rain starts to pour, I'll be thinking of you
So no one ever told you life would be this way?
Rewind the scene where they were singing: I'll be there for you
Why was no one there for you?
You hid your pain behind a mask they called your sense of humour
It's torment when the laughter ends
And all the publications speculating mostly rumours
Now they pretend to be your friends
And by the time someone found you, it was too late
It got too much, and you chose Heaven over Hell
And all the lighters we hold up won't ease the sadness
'Cause in the end, all that we need is someone's help
So when the rain starts to pour, I'll be thinking of you
So no one ever told you life would be this way?
Rewind the scene where they were singing: I'll be there for you
Why was no one there for you?
Could I be any more sorry there's a world without you? (Could I be?)
So no one ever in life could end like you (no one ever would)
Rewind the scene where they were singing: I'll be there for you
Why was no one there for you?
So when the rain starts to pour, I'll be thinking of you (I'll be thinking)
So no one ever told you life would be this way? (No one ever told me)
Rewind the scene where they were singing: I'll be there for you
Why was no one there for you?
