I want you to hear, not just listen,
I need you to feel this pain,
Just understand, hear me out,
I cant go through this again.
Feel my tears, look at me,
Stare me right in the eye,
Watch me fall step by step,
And prey that I don’t die.
Just listen to what I’m crying,
Don’t look at me that way,
Don’t judge who I am from what you see,
Please stop running…just stay.
I need to tell you, all my past,
I need to open up my heart,
Hear my stories, hear my hurt,
Just don’t tear it apart.
I’ve been through this many a time,
And it’s something I’ve got used to,
But please, I need your help,
Like I would do for you.
Wipe my tears, hold me close,
Just don’t let me cry,
Keep my safe in your arms tonight,
Help me stop living my lie.
I’ll tell you the truth if you’ll let me,
And I’ll wear my heart on my sleeve,
But please I’m begging you now,
I need you…just don’t leave.
