never alone

can you tell me
or let me see
all the things
you don't want to be

the hardest thoughts
the deepest wounds
the deepest cuts
your mind consumes

let me be there
just by your side
not leading the way
but still helping to guide

when there is no other way
we'll make a road
to tell your story
and lighten the load

and maybe this won't last
and i will have to go
but there will be someone else
who will also know

the pain and the sadness
you can't seem to set aside
but who'll let you know
you don't need to hide

someday you'll go along
and see how far you've got
you thought you were alone
but in the end, you'll see you are not
