Dead And Gone

What would you do if I needed a friend?

Would you turn away?

Unplug the phone?

Act like no one is home?

No interruptions today!

If I called out your name

If I cried in pain

Oh won't you tell me what would you do?

Your delusions of power

Could be tested this hour

When a friend needs a friend

Does it make you feel strong! ?

Dead and Gone! Dead and Gone!

He was there with a knife

No respect for life!

Baby! It could have been you!

She was a mother of four

Went screaming to the door

She screamed, "Help me!"

Oh, she cried

No one came to her side

The neighbours stood there

Watching 'till she died

Your delusions of power

Could be tested this hour

When a friend needs a friend

Does it make you feel strong! ?

Dead and Gone! Dead and Gone!
