i wish i could

you're not alone in pain
you're not alone in sorrow

I know they are only words that seem so empty 
I know they are only words that seem so heavy 

How I wish I could convince you
How I wish I could take all of it from you

I can't make you believe it will stop 
I can't make you believe it will one day be memory 

today it hurts more than the sun in your eyes 
today it hurts more than salt in an open wound

so raw
so exposed 
so misdiagnosed

cry on my shoulder
scream in my ears 
tear me down

I promise I'll stay 
because you need someone to stand when you can't
