A person offers their help to take away another's pain and be what they can for them.
Living with your pain,
Shadowed in your mind.
You fear to draw me in,
Fear not, I'll pull you out.
On others you feel you can't depend,
Always deserted to the same end.
Forget all that, I'm here.
Hush, hush, I'm here.

My soul calls to you,
Standing on the edge of sanity.
Don't let it take you.
Trust in me to bring you back.
Fight to hold on, never fade into the black.

Days swiftly come and go,
There's so much hurt, I know.
Nightmares torture you to the point of pain,
Asking yourself if you're going insane.
I'll wrap myself around you,
Giving comfort you've never known.
All I ask is trust in me.

Emotions in our eyes never lie.
Searching solemn skies,
No answer you receive.
I'm your way out.
If you'll let me be,
If only you'll let me be.
