Not usually something that I would do
But I owe you a thanks and a big hug too
For helping me out with what I need to get through.
Seems you're the only one that knows my outlet
The only one that doesn't think I'm nuts quite yet
You understand how I can scream and cry
Feel defeated and down and wanting to die
You change my mind and directed me
Told me how to portray what my hands couldn't see
Sometimes I wish I could offer that same advice
What is it, friend, behind those eyes?
There's a lot that I don't know about you
But I know enough that your friendship is true
I don't know what all you have been through
Just as much as I need to worry too
If our two fucked up lives are artistic as one
Is it enough to help us keep going on?
Just stick around and enjoy the ride
I'll try not to show you my ugly side
But if and when I honestly do
I know you won't run. You've been there too.
