we sit, and we listen,
we all pretend to be good,
wanting, wishing, hoping that you'd do what you have to.

and my heart goes out to you every time you cry
and i wish i could take away the pain everytime you bleed.
your every scratch, scrape, bump, slash and heartache.
but the strap isn't on me,
and sometimes i wish it were.

the needles arent meant for me, but sometimes
i want to hold you and tell you it's okay
that you're safe, and that i'll take this one for you.

it wouldn't be so bad if i were there to take it.
it's not like you've got nothing left, it's just that

---

i hear what you say, to your words of pain, i listen
and im crying, the pain never seems to go away
because sometimes you just need a hand

but really, we listen
and my heart goes out to you,
and ill pray for you.
ill love you to kingdom come.

and i'll love you even more after that.
forgive me if im forgetful and stupid.
i just want to be here, there and everywhere,
if only to hold you, and tell you everything's going to be okay.
and that nothing's gonna hurt you anymore, 'cause
its me who's stepping in, and not you.
i'll come out bloody and bruised,
but not you.

my hands are cold, and im not writing this with my heart.
its from my head, and its devoid of expression.
im not writing beautiful messages that make you want to reach out and cry.
im not trying to be 'artistic' or 'emo'. im not trying to get you feel sorry for me,
and im not trying to be abstract.
i like it better that way.
why would you want someone to read into your soul?
why do we sit here on our livejournals and spaces and blogs and type away our feelings?
what happened to teary-eyed phonecalls and
soggy shoulders
and hugs that last forever?
--why do you emote online, but hide ourselves to the world?
is the computer your outlet?
do you talk to people on MSN, but not in person?--

---i love you. talk to me. you. and you. ♥

this doesn't mean anything to you, if you think it's about you. stop reading into messages. life is more than your computer screen. emotions are more than sad, angry, happy and depressed smileys. stop hiding;
