Are you there? Are you watching me?
As I lie here on this floor
They say you feel what I do
They say you're here every moment
Will you stay? Stay 'till the darkness leaves
Stay here with me
I know you're busy, I know I'm just one
But you might be the only one who sees me
The only one to save me
Why is it so hard?
And can't you just take me?
I don't have much to go
Before I fade completely
Can you feel how cold I am?
Do you cry as I do?
Are you lonely up there all by yourself?
Like I have felt all my life
The only one to save mine
How are you so strong?
What's it like to feel so free?
Your heart is really something
Your love, a complete mystery to me
"...Kelly describes "Irvine," which she wrote in the bathroom of her dressing room while performing at the Irvine Verizon Wireless Amphitheatre, as "the saddest song I've ever written." "The song is a prayer from the lowest point in my life," she says. "There comes a time when you feel like, if He's up there, God, Allah or whatever you want to call Him, is the only one that can help me out. After that night, I know there's someone or something out there looking out for me..."
"...On the bluesy acoustic twang of "Chivas," the rollicking hidden bonus track, Clarkson channels the late Janis Joplin's "Mercedes Benz" on a cheeky kiss-off drinking song with lines like "You're not worth it, babe/All the trouble you bring...I'm so sick of you, babe/I can't stand the sight of your face... You should keep your eyes on your new girlfriend." It's a sense of humor she demonstrates throughout the album..."

its a very goergous song, shows her emotion and thats shes trying to turn the crap times into something else, i believe she is talking about the almight one, GOD!! and i used to hate this song but now i love it she has the best voice ever
Chivas is some soccor team stuff and Chivas Regal is a Scotch Whiskey... for the person who asked above Pretty awesome song, I prefer Chivas to Irvine though.
This Song shows kellys voice and lyric ability so well, this and haunted are my favourites.
its so amazing, get over the slowness. it allows her to show more emotion
i thought it mean maybe somebody died and is looking down on her
and what does chivas mean
and i like how it is silent in the background and slow and you can hear the emotion in her voice, its beautiful and amazing. i read once the it was painful for her to singand you can hear it
I really really haste it when ppl dislike a song for being to slow. I feel that slow and acoustic songs portrait a more powerful message, and allow the artists emotion to shine through rather than be drowned out by background music.
The first part of the song is most definately about god... what else would it be?!?
The second half I have my own meaning for becuase the lyrics are my feelings for tow different men in my life.
When I heard this song I thought that it was about God. I love these lyrics - I completely disagree about it being too slow. This entire album is simply amazing. Each word in every song is obviously so carefully chosen b/c every song on the album is so heart felt. LOVE IT
This song always make me want to sob. I love how it's just a gentle guitar in the background and her voice. It's absolutely amazing.
Chivas is a hidden track, which is the reason for the pause.

its a very goergous song, shows her emotion and thats shes trying to turn the crap times into something else, i believe she is talking about the almight one, GOD!! and i used to hate this song but now i love it she has the best voice ever

I love Irvine and Chivas but whats up with the minute and a half pause between the two? (on the cd) shouldn't they just make a 14th song?
Chivas is some soccor team stuff and Chivas Regal is a Scotch Whiskey... for the person who asked above
Pretty awesome song, I prefer Chivas to Irvine though.
