You Found Me by The Fray is about despair and doubt, depicting a fictional encounter with God during a moment of need. Isaac Slade wrote the song inspired by his experiences of going through hardships and questioning where God was during times of struggle.
I found god On the corner of first and Amistad Where the west was all but won All alone, smoking his last cigarette I Said where you been, he said ask anything Where were you? When everything was falling apart All my days were spent by the telephone It never rang And all I needed was a call That never came To the corner of first and Amistad
Lost and insecure You found me, you found me Lying on the floor Surrounded, surrounded Whyd you have to wait? Where were you? Where were you? Just a little late You found me, you found me
In the end everyone ends up alone Losing her, the only one whos ever known Who I am, who Im not, who I want to be No way to know how long she will be next to me
Lost and insecure You found me, you found me Lying on the floor Surrounded, surrounded Whyd you have to wait? Where were you? Where were you? Just a little late You found me, you found me
Early morning, City breaks Ive been calling for years and years and years and years And you never left me no messages You never send me no letters You got some kind of nerve, taking all I want
Lost and insecure You found me, you found me Lying on the floor Where were you, Where were you Lost and insecure You found me, you found me Lying on the floor Surrounded, surrounded Whyd you have to wait? Where were you? Where were you? Just a little late You found me, you found me
