Analogy II - For Our Benefit
For this one, you may have to put your "Visualizing Hat" on, but bear with me.

If your friends haven't understood you. I know how you feel.

Father where are you when I need you
Son I am here with my arms around you
Father where are you when I feel alone
Son I am walking with you, I am in you
Father where are you when I feel beaten by the enemy
Son I am protecting you with shield and sword
Father where are you when I feel weak in the fight
Son I am by your side, I am strong in battle
Father where are you when I feel lost
Son I am holding a flashlight and map in front of you
Father where are you when I am down
Son I am picking you up and holding you in my arms
Father where are you when I run from you
Son I am pulling you back to me by your collar
Father where are you
