You know what the funny thing?
I was there for everyone.
I was there when the phone would ring
And stood by them when they were done.

I held their hand during the darkest night
And turned their black days to white.
I would wipe their tears and say,
Hey sunshine, tomorrow will be a better day.

But then my time came,
And my demons were hard to tame.
I screamed, I shook, I cried
And my tears were impossible to hide.

I cried, I binged, I cut.
I thought I would be saved but
They were all afraid
And my soul started to fade.

Time came and went
And I was emotionally spent.
I was emotionless, empty, numb
And just realized I was dumb.

But hey, when my time was over, they came around.
Said, "Why aren't you making any sound?"
"Hey girl you're acting strange."
Well mate...pain can change.
