Can you really tell?
Which helping hands are true?,
and which are imposters
Which ones will take your hand when you slip,
and not let go?
Or which ones will be held out but will push you down and pull out of the way when you fall?
Can you really tell?

They're all around,
the fakes and the friends.
The ones who laugh behind you, but smile when you spin around
Or the ones who defend your back and hug you when you turn around
Or how about the ones who laugh at you all the time?
They're the ones to stay.
Can you really tell?

Cause I can tell,
My sister's the real deal.

(I'll always be there to protect you.)

-Tasman
My best friend/sister/other half of me wrote this for me when I tried suicide a while back.
Together, we fought off the demons for a little bit but then they came back. Stronger then ever before, more then ever before. I was drowning under the surface for about 2 months before she was yanking me up out of the surf of the demons. I love her. My sister's the real deal.
