All my life
I protect the ones I love
from the hurt and pain
but never for myself

I felt I was alone
I felt sadness grips my neck
I felt sick
I felt nothing

Then you came
so sweet and good
you saw my demons
yet you stayed

I saw you were like me
apathetic
sad
and alone

I wanted to protect you
even if it means
for me to die and live
again and again

We
dance with the toughest tempest
masquerade with our demons
together

Your question
is also my question
"What did I do to deserve
someone like you"


Then the answer came to me:
You've done so much for others
you felt all the **** in the world
it is time for you
to have someone do it for your


I will always make you see
the good
even in darkest times
I'll be by your side
What did I ever do to deserve you?

You've done so much, it is time for you to experience it
