Just Breathe

She said, "Don't get too close. It's dark inside. It's where my demons hide."

And I answered...

"Get too close, there is a Hell inside of me, it's where your demons can live."

Who will cry for the little boy?
Lost and all alone.
Who will cry for the little boy?
Chained and tamed.
Who will cry for the little boy?
He cried himself to sleep.
Who will cry for the little boy?
He never had for keeps.
Who will cry for the little boy?
He walked the ultimate plank.
Who will cry for the little boy?
The boy inside the man.
Who will cry for the little boy?
Who knows well hurt and pain.
Who will cry for the little boy?
He died again and again.
Who will cry for the little boy?
A good boy he tried to be.
Who will cry for the little boy?
Who cries inside of me.

This is a tale about saving yourself and the ones you love.
