They put you on the path
And you blindly followed
Because it was filled
With promises of better tomorrows
And brighter futures
Sunshine daisies butter mellow
They told you to survive until June
And you endured
More than anybody else
Your ghosts, your angels, your spirits, your demons
And you crossed the finish line with bloody knees
And when you got Here
It was just a re-run episode
And you wondered why you listened
To any of us in the first place
This is your life
Take it
Live for a living
I am only asking you to exist
And maybe that’s selfish
And sometimes I need you
More than you need yourself
And I won’t make you promise me anything
Because we both know that will
Only make you feel guilty
And that’s the last thing I want
I want you to know
That you have survived
You are still here
And we all still need you
You are enough
