Please, just say some thing to me
You might not think so but I do see
The longing in your eyes to fly away and be free
You don't voice it but I know you agree
Every single day you slip a little more
Changing from the person I knew before
Every thing in your head becomes a war
Living your everyday life turns into a chore
Falling backwards into the black
Your defences up against every attack
Spiralling downwards off the beaten track
But I don't think you want to come back
You feel best when you can get away
When you don't hear what other people say
All you want is to stop today
To lay down on the floor and give way
I know it's me that's stopping you
Because I'm the one who saw right through
The one who stopped and saw into
Your mind full of thoughts that were untrue
Every day I stop you from doing
The cuts you claim need renewing
Every day I stop you from pursuing
The alcohol which you are overdoing
But am I being mean
Trying to control the scene
Wanting you to live till at least eighteen
And stop all acts considered obscene
I know your hurting
I know what I'm saying is disconcerting
I know that your diverting
I know your not reverting
It's me that's refusing to let you go
I'm selfish and my answer is no
