How it comes that out of all people you are the one who Won't hesitate to embrace the mess that's left of me When the darkest hour of my sadness strikes And takes all the good I've done out of my reach in exchange for hatred I feel inside You are here when I won't let anyone see my face It's pale and there are bags under my eyes for the lack of sleep And my cheeks are swollen of cries I let out These starless nights And when all my hair is gone And my nails are ****** And when I balance on the edge of insanity How comes you are my only sense of stability I'm afraid of falling Down there are monsters Who would eat me without a second thought And you assure me that If I fall you will catch me and fight with those beasts Just so I am alright But I'm afraid of flying Because everytime I tried, those filthy hands reached out To me, gripped on me And slowly let me fall back down Yet you still borrow me your wings Without me actually using them What if I break them? I would ruin your free spirited headspace And brave heart of a fighter I would **** the lovely person you are in exchange for my failure I can't possibly ever let myself do that You believe in me You believe that a little push brings uplift You know I can do that Just need to find the courage to do it You are everything I need, Bringing me to my knees and then lifting me up Throwing me off balance while making sure about me being stable Physically, psychologically, emotionally Alabaster hands put me down from a chair I'm trembling on after another unsuccessful attempt As long as you are with me, my dearest friend I know I can and will stand tall As long as you are here to stabilise me

Stability
How it comes that out of all people you are the one who Won't hesitate to embrace the mess that's left of me When the darkest hour of my sadness strikes And takes all the good I've done out of my reach in exchange for hatred I feel inside You are here when I won't let anyone see my face It's pale and there are bags under my eyes for the lack of sleep And my cheeks are swollen of cries I let out These starless nights And when all my hair is gone And my nails are ****** And when I balance on the edge of insanity How comes you are my only sense of stability I'm afraid of falling Down there are monsters Who would eat me without a second thought And you assure me that If I fall you will catch me and fight with those beasts Just so I am alright But I'm afraid of flying Because everytime I tried, those filthy hands reached out To me, gripped on me And slowly let me fall back down Yet you still borrow me your wings Without me actually using them What if I break them?
