when I turn my back, I trust you in full
I’m trying to keep up your slack, help you face the world,
but do you really care, all your pain I share, and then you run

this silly world it seems to bleed, you don’t know were to begin,
but I just try, I just try to help
you think I am a fool, breaking every single rule,
yet in the end I come up on top
how did this occur, he seemed like such a blur
its like he didn’t want to be seen
please understand, my kind are in demand, those who ask so little and yet give so much
not saying I am the best, for we are many, and I am just one
yet if you travel through life, struggling with strife, and I come along, and help you look up instead of down, then I have done my job, no matter what you say

why do I fight when you run, do you think this pain is fun

my lord I cant go on, I feel as though I’ll die,
but still to help I stride, I fight side by side with the best,
when I fall to my knee, they come up beside me, and lift me up from the ground
they stay by side till I am strong, and unlike like you, they don’t run from me, when I fall again, they return

I don’t fell, I have given up, and yet you expect me to care, how can I when I don’t feel
with all the things you said spinning in my head, your words cutting like teeth of some mythical beast,
your breath on my bleeding shape, I cannot fight this rape, my mind is your to destroy, and yet at this time you still toy

they beat you back, they morn my soul, for everything I have ever done, and everything you took away from them,
there are many who care, care for me, and yet its like I am worthless to you,
if that’s how you see me, then leave me, and do not waste my time on your words,
why is it you stay, you hate my very way, the way I chose to live my life, and the way I chose to help
why not just run away, your kind letting you back, yet slowly your bonds with them do crack, and they turn on you to
not saying I am right, nor am I sure I’m wrong, all I know is I can still stand strong,
I know if I stay for long, you will despise my song, for your kind does not understand mine,
we are a force of more, more then ever before, for every day we grow in strength and numbers,
for ourselves we care, and with each other we share, a bond of love that shall stay strong
for time puts ware on all, everything that’s big and all that is small,

if you expect me to stay, and withstand all this pain then you were right, a time in the past,
a time when I felt not, a time when to no one I seemed to matter,
but with will and inner strength, I learned what true pain was, so many battles fought on my own,
I wished not to be alone, but I was to scared to share my inner flaws,
time placed its claws on my arm and the scars remain, but to the end I fought that pain, and finally one day I pulled out, and decided it was time to live again, so understand when I say I cannot take the pain that you give, you need to learn to care, to care for all my kind and not just your own, for in time ignoring my beacon will again leave you alone
