Everyone tells me I should walk away
says you’ve got too much going on to handle.
I don’t know why that doesn’t send me running
but I do know I have a heart big enough to hold you inside.
And I don’t know why it hurts this much to have you pushing
me away since I still don’t really know you
but I do know it hurts seeing you suffer under all this heavy weight.
I’ll hold your hand through it if you commit to bettering yourself.
