The silence is wearing me down
I’m not sure how much more I can handle
before I give in and give up
…but I’m not there yet
I don’t have enough friends
to let a good one go so easy
and though I’ve made mistakes
I can also make amends
if you’ll only let me
I’m not afraid to say at this point
that I care more than I should
I can’t help the way I feel
but I can help you
I’ll find a way to remind you
the value of someone standing behind you
…if I can only make it through the quiet
