You must understand

                                        My friend

That I    never    wanted you to save me

                         I never meant to bring you down into this hole I had created

          I never wanted you to drown in the undertow I had predicted

                                         I do not mean to be your anchor and take away your breath

       I never asked for you to save me

I never wanted a reason for life

I just wanted you to listen,          and maybe understand

               But if you don't yet, let me try

I may be dying everyday

But so are you

                                          And sometimes I forget how easy it is to make you cry

And sometimes I forget that you actually truly care

             But I am doing just fine down here

And your reflection in this water is more than I need

          Do not try to save me, my love

Because you'll only **** yourself


                                          Just be there when I am wet and cold

And be there to dry my eyes

You are not responsible for my suffering

You are not responsible for my death

       And I know that it still hurts you
       And knowing that hurts me too

But please, do not try to save me

          This is my battle, and this is my war

              So stop worrying about me

Because I know that I will win

              And I want you to be there with me when I drown this little monster

And I want you to be there with me when I go out for drinks after
