Where Is Everybody? Lyrics

Trent feels abandoned and betrayed by "everyone" (obviously his friends or family, or the people who promised to be there and weren't). In other words, there's many people who are along for the ride of fame and fortune and such, but when Trent needs a shoulder to cry on or something to hold him, no one is there.

"I'm so tired of pretending of wishing I was ending" ---he's tired of pretending he's suicidal and depressed when all he really wants is someone to be there for him. . . and not have to 'live up' to other's expectations. He wants to be himself.
