this writing has been inspired by this song, the song I linked is not my own but it is what made me want to write this so listen to it before you read.

this is being dedicated to somebody whom I care about very much, this person will remain unnamed for privacy but I love them a lot and they are a wonderful friend, I am sending this to them so if I linked it to you, then hey friend, this is for you. I know you're not a twenty one pilots fan like me but, this song described what I want to say to you right now. I know you're struggling, but I understand, I am too, and I need you more than you know. Here I'm going to be just typing the lyrics in italics and then underneath I'm explaining what it means to me and what I need to say to you.
I feel for you but when did you believe you were alone. you say that spiders crawled inside and made themselves a home where life once was.
I know how you feel, you're not alone, you never will be. I'm sticking by your side through thick and thin. I know how it feels to be empty and hollow and like everything's hopeless, but it gets better when you're not doing it alone. I'm here.
Petrified of who you are and who you have become, you will hide from everyone denying you need someone to exterminate your bones.
I get being afraid, of life and the world and yourself, but you don't need to isolate yourself or be alone. It's okay to ask for help, asking for help is not weakness in fact it's incredibly brave and strong.
Friend please remove your hands from over your eyes for me, I know you want to leave but friend please don't take your life away from me.
Don't hide away from me please, you don't need to hide. To take your life wouldn't just be taking it from yourself but from me as well, because your life is so much of the light in my own.
Living like a ghost you walk by everyone you know, you say that you're fine but you have lost your sway and glow so I stopped by to let you know.
You don't have to lie and cover it up and say you're fine when you are not. You can open up to me, you can tell me how you're feeling. because I can tell when something's up.
Friend please remove your hands from over your eyes for me, I know you want to leave but friend please don't take your life away from me.
I'm so proud of you for getting this far, you're so strong for that, so please remain strong for me. I need you to do that.
Would you let me know your plans tonight. Cause I just won't let go till we both see the light.
I'm worried that you'll do something bad and I wouldn't have done enough to stop that. I will hold on to you and I refuse to let anything bad happen to you.
I have nothing else left to say but I will listen till you all day, yes I will.
I may not always have the right advice or the solution, but that doesn't mean I won't always be here to listen. no matter the issue, I'll listen.
Friend, please remove your hands fromOver your eyes for meI know you want to leave butFriend, please don't take your life away from me
