What can I do? Tell me how to help To ease the ache in your heart And stop that tear from falling from the corner of your eye I know you're hurting I can feel your soul crying It makes me crazy because I just want to stop your heart from bleeding I want to save you Like you've saved me all these years I want to stop the pain just like you've done for me so many times I want to chase all the agony away because I see it stripping the life out of you And you're the last person on this earth that should look as sad as you do You put up a strong front But, I think the dam is about to burst and I'm scared to death you'll drown in it And I won't be able to get to you in time And my heart will drown and wash away with you Because you are my heart You're who kept me strong when I was barely holding on I want, I need to be that same lifeline to you now Pull you out of the rain And let the sun dry all your tears and chase off all your fears You've always been the strong one, the one who just pushed through the bad times and bulldozed anyone who go in your way or our way Me and Sam... We think the world of you You're the glue that holds us together when all we want to do is fall apart We've spent so much time leaning on you, the foundation of our lives Maybe we over looked you cracking And I'm sorry I'm so sorry for being selfish and forgetting that mom's need help sometimes too I'm always gonna need you Sam's always gonna need you But, we know the other side has another side And all I want to do is lend you my heart and my hand Let me be a foundation you can lean on I won't act as if I understand everything you're going through I just promise you that you don't have to go through it alone I'm behind you 100% Just like you always have been for us If there's one thing I've learned in my life time, it's that I can count on you And I know it's not much but, you can count on me too I'd give you my last breath if that was the cost to make you whole again Because you're broken And it burns me up inside I walk into this tense, cold house and I want to burn it to ground With all the things that ale you inside of it I'd swim a million miles if I had to to bring you back to shore If you jump, I jump And like a hero, I'd catch you falling from the sky Cause I learned that from you, my hero You're not alone I know I can't fix all the lonely But you deserve to be forever smiling You deserve a plush seat to sink into and just close your eyes and breath I don't know what to do And selfishly I have to say it's killing me... Because it's killing you Here's my hand, take it. It'll be a start I'm in it all the way I just want to help you Let me help you I don't know what to do Just tell me what to do Mom... What can I do?
Mom, I know times are hard... I know I haven't made them any easier but, that's all I want to do. I just want to be what you've always been to me. A hero. I love you.
