i want you to know
that i am here~
trying to understand
your pain = your fear~
i listen to what
you say~
but excuses
wont change what you need
they only delay~
so much anger that it has
blown out any light to reason~
there seems to be no way
of pleason~
youve closed your door~
yet expect love and more~
but how can it enter~
when a mind stays
locked in self center~
please dont take this wrong~
i do understand your pain
and your sad, sad, song~
i see in you
what i have left behind~
i am not saying your mean
nothing of the kind~
but for changes to take place~
takes more than a smile on ones face~
one needs to think and see
a different way~
its called reality
not a game or denial
but emotions with understanding
and accepting others mistakes
and words not word play~
you dont know how others feel
or what there thinking about~
assuming all the answeres
without asking or listening
you judge guilty without a doubt~
your pain and fear
keeps love out~
i do understand
i have been there
but now i am here
so lets take a different route~
we all have needs
we all have some pain~
we all have cried tears that pour like rain~
i pray for you each night and day~
for some peace and understanding and forgiveness
to come your way~
so please dont take this wrong~
for once i am trying to be a friend
and help you sing a better song~
addictions in life can take a toll~
creating lonliness, as you become
less of who you are, in your self defeating role~
i am sorry if my words might hurt~
but your a person, a friend, not just dirt~
i care~
so with you my heart and soul and time
i share~

remember i am here for you~
when your ready
i will do what it takes to help you make
it through~

another day~
a different way~
please forgive me for what i had to say~
but your important to me
and a friend i want you to stay~
