In the darkness,
I cry three tears
One for the past
Where I almost lost you
Two for the present
Where I learned to save a life
And three,
For the undecided future
Where you'll now be able to live

This was for Cody, I never realized what was going on with him, and I'm glad I did something before it was too late. I hope it teaches you that there's always someone who cares and that you should be whatever someone needs, not what they want.
