I Can't Do This Alone

Please help me.
I need you by my side.
I need to have you around,
So you can be my guide.

I know this sounds stupid,
But I'm scared to take the steps.
I'm petrified that, like everything else,
This will turn into a mess.

Please don't turn your back on me;
I would never survive.
Don't you understand that without your help,
Today I wouldn't be alive?

You've done so much and I know it's unfair
For me to ask for more.
But I beg of you, please,
Please Kevin, please don't walk out that door!

I cannot do this without you.
I cannot do this on my own.
I need you to be there for me.
Please don't let me do this alone.
