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
