River So Down
I don't want to be a burden
I don't want to be alone
I just seem to keep falling
Through no fault of my own
Soft words fall on deafened ears
And goes in my fragile shell
So numb with no feelings
and so unable to tell
I can't see my way forward
I keep slipping away
Simply trying is not enough
I won't give in this way
There's a light I can follow on
But my way is damned
If I can't find the path ahead
Won't stay 'til I end
Let’s sit here for a while
I'll try to crack a smile
I want you here but I'm not sure
Take my hand will you lead
Dress my wounds so I won't bleed
I think we've been through this before
When I'm so down, you're not around
I now know I don't need you here
My broken mind, will someday find
a way to hold my dearest near
Who said this isn't murder
That's just how it feels to me
