I want to read the words you write to yourself I want to see the pictures you paint with no one else in mind I want to see the butterflies you dream up with eyes wide open I want to hear the words that whisper you to sleep I want to see who wakes you up each morning I want to know what you see when your eyes are closed I want to hold the hand that helps you breathe straight I want to be the thought keeping you from jumping

I want to read the words you write to yourself I want to see the pictures you paint with no one else in mind I want to see the butterflies you dream up with eyes wide open I want to hear the words that whisper you to sleep I want to see who wakes you up each morning I want to know what you see when your eyes are closed I want to hold the hand that helps you breathe straight I want to be the thought keeping you from jumping
