Thank You

i was in the corner
you wouldn't let me hide
i was in the dark til
you turned on the light
i was saying that its all wrong
you were saying its alright

thanks for showing me the full moon
when i've barely left the bedroom
when the walls i'm working, working
just won't give
when i am so low, when i'm so damn lost
so close to simply signing off
thank you for preferring that i live

i was waving sayonara
you were shaking me shalom
i was out in outer space but
you flew me back home
when i asked am i alive?
you replied youre not alone

thanks for standing right beside me
when you have to tread so lightly
when my screws are loose
when my whole soul is stiff
when i am so low, when i'm so damn lost
so close to simply signing off
thank you for preferring that i live

its golden what you gave me
though i doubt that i deserve it
but youve worked so hard to save me
i'll try to make it worth it

i was tripping, i was falling
and you held out your hand
was drowning in the deep sea
and you ferried me to land
now my fears are in the open
and my feet are in the sand

thanks for giving me a reason
just to hang on through that season
when life felt like a curse and love a grift
when i was so low, i was so damn lost
so close to simply signing off
thank you for preferring that i live
