A companion to Dean**


The weight is placed on your shoulder.
Long before the world grew colder.
You are your father’s daughter.
Before you failed your brother.


Just hold on.
The sun is soon rising.
A new day has come.
Breathe deep and carry on.


Made to raise your little brother.
But when he was taken along with your mother.
The responsibly that went unspoken.
Now has left your heart so broken.


Just hold on.
The sun is soon rising.
A new day has come.
Breathe deep and carry on.


You believe it’s all your fault.
The thought makes you halt.
Afraid to play your part.
And you’re worried you’ve lost your heart.


Just hold on.
The sun is soon rising.
A new day has come.
Breathe deep and carry on.


Coming to the end of your rope.
Heading down a slippery *****.
Can’t listen to what you need to hear.
All you know is fear.
Starting to feel weak.
Not getting any sleep.
The nightmares haunt you.
Hoping you can make it through.


Just hold on.
The sun is soon rising.
A new day has come.
Breathe deep and carry on.


Don’t give up on me now.
You can make it through somehow.
Please just take my hand,
I can help you stand.


Just hold on.
The sun is soon rising.
A new day has come.
Breathe deep and carry on.
