When I Cry

When I cry will you hold me?

And fight the demons

That cover my body in fear

And wrap me up in doubt

When I cry will you cry with me?

All through my anger and hate

Listen to the voices that drag me down

And tell me that they are lies

When I cry will you tell me everything will be okay?

And wrap your arms around me

Offer me protection I don’t have

Wipe my tears away and smile

When I cry will you still love me?
