Desperate.. Desperate.. 
You're reachin' out,
And no one hears your cry.
You're freakin' out again
'Cause all your fears remind you. 
Another dream [bad word] undone. 
You feel so small and lost 
Like you're the only one. 
You wanna scream, 
'Cause you're desperate. 

You want somebody, just anybody 
To lay their hands on your soul tonight. 
You want a reason to keep believin' 
That some day you're gonna see the light... 

You're in the dark; 
There's no one left to call. 
And sleep's you're only friend, 
But even sleep can't hide you 
From all those tears and all the pain 
And all the days you waste pushin' them away. 
It's your life; 
it's time you face it.

You want somebody, just anybody 
To lay their hands on your soul tonight. 
You want a reason to keep believin' 
That some day you're gonna see the light... 'Cause you're desperate, desperate. 
'Cause you're desperate now... 

You know the things have gotta change. 
You can't go back, you find a way. 
And day by day, you start [bad word] alive. 

You want somebody, just anybody 
To bring some peace to your soul tonight. You want a reason to keep believin' 
That some day you're gonna see the light... 

You want somebody, just anybody 
To lay their hands on your soul tonight. 
You want a reason to keep believin' 
That some day you're gonna see the light... 'Cause you're desperate, desperate. 
'Cause you're desperate tonight. 
Oh, desperate... So desperate tonight, 
Tonight... 
Desperate, desperate....
