Pull me off the edge
Drag me off the yellow line
Fish me from the ocean
Take me down from my noose

Some one be a hero
Some one I always rejected
Something I never wanted

Someone I really need

I would die in peace
Accept the tunnel of light
With a calm, expression on my face
In case anyone was watching

Maybe that’s the mistake
Because I’m trembling with fear
But no one needs to look that close cause I look fine
And that’s the goal

So how can I expect you now
If I put up so much effort
So not to attract you

Because now with no one watching
I need you


The author's comments:
i held my head high i accept everything in stride i would go out quietly as i came and was. i have made a very deliberate show if being fine because i never wanted help. but now is it so wrong to want it, need it, anyways? i made it very clear i'm not a pricess so why am i still waiting for my rescuer?
