Reach Out...
If the sun no longer shines,
And your heart just wants to give
If your smile fades slowly,
And if it hurts to simply live.
Don't be afraid to cry,
Don't be afraid to see,
That everyone's pulling for you
And don't forget- that includes me.
I will help you through,
Cause i know how you feel.
The pain is so consuming,
And the tears are just too real.
When the world is busy turning,
And no one has time to listen-
Search me out, and I will be
That comfort that you're missing.
I know what it feels llike
To feel alone, frightened, and scared-
I promise you won't go through it alone-
Call on me, and i'll be there.
Don't ever think that i'm too busy,
I want to be there for you,
I'll listen as you scream, yell or cry-
Whatever you need to do.
My heart breaks each time i see
The pain that you carry around-
People ask you what is wrong
Yet you barely make a sound.
I will never give up on you,
I promise-- that's a given.
You can count on me always
As sure as i am living.
As you push everybody away,
I'll never leave your side
I'll be reminding you that you can beat this
Pushing you to thrive.
I know that you feel my help is pointless
You feel you just can't survive-
I know-- cause i've been in your shoes,
And another's help kept me alive.
I know you're sick of hearing
"You've got a great life ahead"
You simply just can't see it
So.... i'll give you a hug instead.
This hug has only one condition,
If your heart ever wants to give-
You'll talk, and i will listen,
Until it hurts a little less to live.
Those who say "snap out of it"
Simply don't understand-
If you ever feel like you want my help,
Just simply reach out your hand.
