She asked me could I shut up   
the voices in her head  
if you asked her what she wanted,   
She’d wish that she were dead

Her eyes blue like the sky  
Her skin coloured ruby red  
And if you asked her what’s the problem  
She’d say it was better left unsaid

No it’s not an easy thing  
To be close to anyone  
But over time, you might find  
You could help someone

Begging for the help you need  
Won’t pull you from the brink  
You could make it on your own  
If you’d just stop and think

It doesn't matter anyway  
Because I’ll be there for you  
To pick you up, and lend you strength  
To help you to breakthrough

No it’s not an easy thing  
To be close to anyone  
But over time, you might find  
You could help someone
