• When hard times come
    You dash into my arms
    For I will always protect you

    When you don't know
    Who to turn to
    Your eyes catch mine
    Because I "understand"

    However...

    When joy soaks the air
    You come and go like wind
    I let you be free

    When your mind is at ease
    I become your toy
    I will never break

    Am I nothing but plastic to you?

    Roads turn rough
    and
    You use me as your path

    You cannot bear the battles
    and
    So I hold as your shield

    I understand all your pain
    I understand all your fear

    You turn to me
    My words sooth

    You know I will never
    Pour salt on your wounds

    I promised to be there for
    You always

    But

    Now I carry the scars
    Because I became the shield

    But now I see the pain and fear
    Im the one to face it

    Now I cant stay soothing
    I wish to fling words

    I wish not to hold the salt
    But let it fall where it may...

    Do not take me for granted
    Just because I can see through your eyes

    I understand you
    But do you understand me?

    For that is its own mystery
