The Push

I guess I must have thought if I pushed hard enough you could help me walk and I so wanted to run If I could just make you see then you would know what to do if anyone could fix me it would have to be you Not thinking for a moment if you were up to the task consumed by my pain I forgot to ask Eventually I pushed you to the edge it seems I saw you on the ledge but didn't hear your screams So now please forgive me for being so blind for I see a distant image inside of my mind Of the person I long for that I used to be when I look at you she's staring back at me
