Friends Help You When You Can'T Help Yourself

I have never seen a sight Of someone wound up so tight Ready to explode and crack What made you get so off track From the happiness you had What was evil and so bad It turned you from being mellow To the disturbed and mad fellow With a scowl on his face That has taken the old place Of smiles that used to be Worn by you so easily I want to help and make you see This whole kind of misery Affects everyone around Please tell me why your so down So I can destroy it fast And break this cold and dark cast That is making you so hard You have put up a large guard And wont let anyone in I promise it will begin To crack a little each day As I'm lighting up the way Of a bridge that you can cross And forget the pain, just toss All of it away and find It can all be left behind If you trust friends to help you When your feeling so blue And talk it out before it gets You so insane and upset That you can't come back from it Just take all of life's bad shi--- And flush it away so far It can't hurt you anymore

Sometimes, it's difficult to be a friend when others will not let you help them. Then, their miserable attitude just affects everyone around them. You expressed this frustration with real emotion and I could feel it coming through in this write. Really great work, Robin!...Thank you very much for the nice comments. :)
