"Where Are You” was written about the shock and disillusionment experienced when you learn that someone you thought you knew is not who you thought they were. Everyone has a dark secret within…..some darker than others. Once the secret is revealed, things are never the same. These secrets are usually revealed when a person hits rock bottom…..when people are their most vulnerable. So the “where” in the song refers not to the physical, but to the emotional or psychological.

The middle eight part of the song was added to darken it up a bit. Being in a major key, the song has kind of an up feeling to it. In reality, the story is not a happy one. This middle part was written to address the sense of anger and disappointment conveyed in the lyrics.

I am by no means a lyricist, but the words to this song came very quickly. I was actually in the process of cutting a guitar track for a friend’s project, when I started jotting them down. He asked me what I was doing, and when I told him, he asked if they were for his band. I immediately told him….”No they’re for Quick.” Haven’t heard much from him since!



Where Are you Lyrics by Victor DeFlorio I’ve seen a man A sick and broken man What was going through your mind Were you the one we thought Or were you lying all the time I said who are you Where did you go Will you ever be the same Time is running out And there’s no one else to blame It’s something I can’t understand Something that I just can’t see Something unnatural Something I never thought you’d be We had such fun When we were young Now it’s not the same You’ve changed so much And I’m so out of touch Seems you’ve reached the end There’s nothing left to say We could see it comin’ down It’s time you stood tall and stopped running away It’s something I can’t understand Something that I just can’t see Something unnatural Something I never thought you’d be	"Where Are You” was written about the shock and disillusionment experienced when you learn that someone you thought you knew is not who you thought they were.
