Who

When reality finally sets in,
Who is there to pick up the pieces?
When your heart is cruelly trampled,
Who will dust it off and smooth the creases?
Who will give you strength to go on
When you're ready to fall apart?
Who will love you as you are
And mend your broken heart?
Who will give you the love you need
When your soul is cold and dead?
Who will calmly cool your rage
When all you see is red?
I will be here for you
If you can be here for me.
Just help me up when I fall,
Be the man I need you to be.
