Is my love enough to save you?

Let's list the ways you harm yourself
let's voice our opinions on why you're headed for hell

this list would take too many scraps of paper
those opinions would turn into a neverending speech

but i am not here to lecture...

i am here to tell you sister,
that i will always love you
i know you feel like you need a man
but doesn't my love do things his can't?

if i were to sit with you for only one night
one single night of your entire life
if i were to talk to you would it end in a fight?

can u look me in the eyes and say you can do this all alone?
can you truthfully say that like being on your own?

because i can solemnly swear
i will always be there
no matter the day or the hour

why do you crave for a deceiving man's touch?
why do you plead for a cheating guy's hand?
and how can you shower in the darkness of your own tears?
why do you put up with living with all these fears?

you could talk to me
you could tell me everything
but instead you choose to lead a destructive life
you ultimate downfall will be the temptation of a knife

so smile on the outside
and sob on the in
because only we can see
the future getting grim
