LYRIC FOR SALE

By Grace Crider

You’re in a battle with yourself
Secluded within
No way to win
You’ve hit the self destruct
Following the motions
Void and broken

Please take my hand
I realize that I may not fully understand
But take my hand
Even though you can’t see
You’re worth it to me
Take my hand
I will fight, I will fight for you
Even when you don’t want to
Take my hand

You’re on the inside looking out
Completely numb
Ready to succumb
Buried inside the darkest pit
You recklessly claw about
Not even sure if you want to make it out
On the ledge of the highest edge
You negligently hover, dangling over
Indifferent to what comes next
Empty and hollow
No care what’s to follow

Please take my hand
I realize that I may not fully understand
But take my hand
Even though you can’t see
You’re worth it to me
Take my hand
I will fight, I will fight for you
Even when you don’t want to
Take my hand

At rock bottom
It’s hard to see the light
But I’ve gotten this far
Without leaving a comrade behind
You may have lost the battle
But you can still win the war
That’s exactly what I’m here for
I won’t leave
Lean on me
Hear my plea

Please take my hand
I realize that I may not fully understand
But take my hand
Even though you can’t see
You’re worth it to me
Take my hand
I will fight, I will fight for you
Even when you don’t want to
Take my hand

I’m reaching out for you
Take my hand
I’m reaching out for you
Take my hand
