(Hello?)
(I'm here)
(I'm listening)

Where are you?
I feel so lonely
Can't I just join you?

(Not yet, my dear)
(You've got a bright future)
(You've got everything I didn't get)

You were accomplished
You were ready to take over the world
What could I recieve that the universe was too cruel to gift to you instead?

(There's so much I didn't have)
(I didn't have a lover)
(I didn't have a best friend)

I'm sorry
But I'm too afraid to love
I'll let go before it even begins

(Why do you think I'm here?)
(I'm ready to guide you)
(I'll stay by your side until I see you again)

You're doing too much
You're already gone
Why continue helping me?

(I know what will happen if I don't)
(That event is too wretched for a young soul like yours)
(So bright and talented, yet ready to darken at the smallest inconvenience)

I'm not that much of a talent
Nor do I have the courage
I need to learn to carry myself
Before it is you I call upon

(I understand what you mean, dear one)
(But it's far more complicated than that)
(I'll watch over you for now)
(But when something goes wrong)
(Promise you'll listen to at least one of my songs)
