My favorite friends


I will give you it all
everything i have
if only to save myself
from myself

i will give you the clothes off my back
i will stay long after its over
because between me and you I've got nothing better to do

i will let you say what you want
and do how you please
unlike me you weren't born on your knees

i just want you to take me in
help me up off the floor
i will wait for you
cause i don't know what else to do

I'm here for as long as you need me
through the night and early morning
i hope I've given you my best

i wish the greatest success
no malice in my thoughts
hopeful you will keep wining

i have no preference
i don't care whats left at the end
i hope that even though you hate me
i can can still call you my friend

i just want you to take me in
help me off the floor
i will wait for you
cause i don't know any better

take me in and take me apart
paint my face cut my heart
i will lay silently
i will take it crying quietly

to be hated is better than ignored
i love your looks of annoyance
i cherish your hurtful hands
i cant wait to be used again
then i know you remember me for something

i don't want off the floor
walk on me if you want
I'm here for the birds
because no one wants the whole
they will take these pieces
and leave me with the bones

Writer

To be a lamb or to be a lion
To which way does the grapevine grow
When it's snowing is it raining
When it's raining does it snow

Do you find solace in simple things
Or do have a need for raw and unrelenting 
I myself find solace in my heart
A gift of which sets all of us apart 

From the sky and the ground
The water and the fire
From known and unknown 
It's always a test so grab your pencil
And sprint as fast as you can 
Most extraordinary thought in others as well as yourself.
