universe is testing me
at every turn
like i haven't proved myself a thousand times

i brace myself for the news
used to getting used
but it gets old after thousands of times

and i wanna be there
i wanna help
i wanna save them all
knowing they would never
giving too much effort
kind to a fault
unfortunately my nature
can't abandon
someone in pain
even if its for my health
i hurt myself
for someone who wouldn't do the same
