I only saw your smile
But I never knew how you felt inside
You didn’t tell me,
You never let me understand you

When I tried to talk

You’d push me away
Making excuses
That I was too young

Was I really too young
Or were you afraid
Of what would happen
If I knew

Every day, all day
Your smile began to
Slip away
You began to lock your feelings inside

Why must you push me away?
Why must you hide your feelings?
All I want is
To support you

When I had tough times
You carried me through them
Now I want to do the same
I want to carry you through your struggles

Go ahead push me away
But I won’t’ leave
You can’t keep hiding
Your feelings forever

There are times
Where you need to depend
On others
So depend on me now

I’m not that young
I’ll be able to help
Let me know
So I can understand you

Expose your feelings
Open all your scars
And we can heal them
Together, you and me

Let me be your
Foundation through
Your struggles
Let me support you

Depend on me
I’ll be here for you
I’ll carry you
Through your fears and struggles

Don’t fight it alone
Let me join
I’m not young
I’m your support
