I am drowning in my sorrow,
I am burning in my lies,
I am tripping over my hatefulness,
But still, your help arrives.

I am helpless in the dark,
Afraid of the unknown,
Falling over edges,
But your arms pull me close,
And your help arrives.

How can I repay you?
I haven't anything to give.
My life is a burning building
But you are the one who runs inside to save me.

Whenever I am down, you are there to pick me up,
Whenever I am down, you find ways to make me smile,
Oh how wonderful it feels,
When your helps arrives.

But,

Lately, you seem sad,
You smile less and less,
You drown in your own depression,
The world has weighed you down.

Just this once,
Let me be there,
Let me help you soar.

This time, I'm here for you.
