Title: Helpless
Writer: Cory

In the darkness is where I stand
helpless and hurting, I don't understand
I see you crying
I hear you crying
I reach out to you, yet....
I'm too far away

All I can do is stand here like a statue
watching you cry
watching you hurt
I stand here feeling helpless

The hurt begins to consume me too
as I begin to cry in vain
I begin to feel your pain
And the distance between us stays the same

I reach for you once again
to hold you
to comfort you
to keep you safe, but alas....
I just stand helpless
