I'll try and save you
I’ll try
And be as loyal as a dog
By your side for everything
There to pick up the pieces after you shatter
I’ll try
To stay silent
When I wish to speak
So I can listen in rapture to all that is you
I’ll try to
Love you with every fiber of my being
And expect no tending to my own heartstrings
Just sit tall and act like it does not affect me
I’ll try to
Stand by the edge of my destruction
With a smile and open arms
Willing to catch you and let myself fall
I’ll try to save
My longing for you
I the one who has to engage you in conversation
Never you that comes to me
I’ll try to save
Your reputation by putting my neck in the noose
My heart sweet as nectar
But your friendship is like the bees in winter
GONE
I’ll try to save you
Like a child keeping a balloon afloat
Fighting a losing battle
Against a force beyond my control
I’ll try to save you
Like the last moments of sun
Remembering what once was my everything
But soon completely eclipsed by darkness
I’ll try to save you
But who will save me?
