Take a deep breath and close your eyes
Fight back the waves of pain that threaten to sallow you whole
Fake a smile and fool them all but you can't fool yourself
Wear the mask of strength that you always wear
Collapse in the rain
You're drowning in the pain that you've kept at bay for so long
You think no one wants to throw you a life vest
I pull you up from the empty street
Holding you against me
I'll pull you out of the waves and rescue you from the deep
