Why do You Love Me?

What can I say?
I've been your way,
and I apologize every day.

Why do you stay?
Care if I'm okay?
I'm just another hopeless stray.

You pick me up,
whenever I fall,
why do you love me at all?

I'm never enough,
so why do you call?
You fly far above me as I crawl.

What can I do?
To get it through
your head?

That I'm not like you,
my sky isn't blue,
it's a deep blood red.

Why can't you see?
You shouldn't help me,
'cause I'm better off dead.

Why do you try
to help when I cry
when you could be elsewhere instead?
