Lyrics 				Oleander
			   Are You There?
I never fear to far away 
There’s nothing Left For me (Yeah)
And when I fear to close to Breath
Like A Baby Cutting Teeth
And You are far away

 (Ahhh a ) Twice

Cause when its more than I can take
I pushed and Pulled to Break
A sucker for a saint 
In Your Eyes
Critosism comes and waits 
Numbering your days
That only you can Save me

Is anybody even there?
Doesn’t just pretend to care
This time I need to know 
Are You There?
Does  anybody think they care?
Begin to even understand 
This time I need to know
Are You There?

(Pause)
Hang on  Hang on
I know  I love
Its the lie that we believe 
A truth that we conceive
That Lies inside of me (yeah)
When I leave it all behind
Something hypnotized 
The moment that its mine

Is anybody even there?
Doesn’t just pretend to care
This time I need to know 
Are You There?
Does  anybody think they care?
Begin to even understand 
This time I need to know 
Are You                             
(Ahhhhhhhh aaaaaaa hhhhhh aaaaa)

Is anybody even there?
Doesn’t just pretend to care
This time I need to know 
Are You There?
Does  anybody think they care?
Begin to even understand 
This time I need to know 
Are You There?
