How can you stay so close to me
When everyone else is miles away?
How can you see who I want to be
And say it will be okay?
How can you find peace
In my dark, dark mind?
How can you find space
In my clouded and heavy heart?
How can you see through a fake smile
And know when they are real?
How can you be next to me
After all that I have revealed?
I suppose all I want to know now,
Is please, darling, answer me: how?
