I know exactly what is on your mind
Tell me should I feel ashamed
My heart so torn and tattered
By everything you say
Is it true I've let you down
Perhaps I've tried too hard
To shield you from the way it is
To keep you from the cold
What man hasn't made mistakes
I'd really like to know
Tell me that you are that man
And I'd be the first to go
But I won't tell you that you're okay
That you deserve your way of life
I know what you are going through
Those phantoms of the night
When a young man feels cornered
And he's got no place to run
He thinks he is a nobody
So let me be the one
Who'll give him his identity
And soothe away the doubt
Who'll take the frown he's wearing
From his soul and throw it out
If only you would trust in me
I can make it right
If only you would follow me
A star into the night
