Broken faucets
And charming sinks
With working drains
And water leaks
With sinks so filled
And water pouring
Faucets keep crying
Faucets still mourning

Leaky faucets
And filled-up sinks
With tiny drains
And spouts that creek
And rushing water
With no place to go
Except over the top
If faucets don’t let go

Open the drain
Let the water go
Oh tainted heart
And broken soul
Don’t drown in a puddle
Don’t crash with thin air
Let the dam break
Make the waters beware

Oh broken faucet
Let go of the drain
Let water flow through it
Like wind through the rain
And see your sink
Be empty and clean
While the waters still pour
And your faucets still leak

One of my friends told me that i was like a sink and he was like a broken faucet. He was pouring his worries into me and he new i'd be there to listen. I hope that when people read this, they think of the person who means that much to them, the person thats always there to listen and hopefully one day they will remember to be a sink for someone else.
