I have always been
a giver
I can always lend
you an ear
I have plently of hankies
to wipe away
your tears
I can give you
the love
They weren't
able to
give
A love that only
from me you
are able to
receive
How lucky of you
to have me
There's a companion who could
listen to your
every weep
How did I manage
to be?
When I can't even
comfort me?
I always found
it funny
To think that I
once held a blade
I never had the
pain
That you always
contained
But now I understand
Now I know
I have always kept
the pain
That demands to be
let go
Little by little
I've been devoured
By little amounts
of pain
That I badly
wanna shout
Can't someone take
these out?
I've always
listened
To your every
cry
Didn't you even
notice
My teardrops that have
gone dry?
But I can't open
my mouth
Because the sound
it will make might
be too loud
I can't risk to harm
your ears
It will be much better to
block the tears
No one will
know
That the most generous
ears
Have a million words
to speak
But are just too silent
for people
to heed
Hear my cries,
They demand
to be released
and heard
Notice my lies,
They hide the
tears I kept
covered.
