So many things to say, but never the right words or enough energy.
What to do, what to do.
I'm just going to let it simmer for a little until I can get my thoughts straight.
She sits alone by a lamppost
Trying to find a thought thats escaped her mind
She says dads the one I love the most
But Stipes' not far behind
She never lets me in
Only tell me wheres shes been
When shes had too much to drink
I say that I dont care I just run my hands
Through her dark hair and then I pray to God
You gotta help me fly away
And just...
Let her cry...if the tears fall down like rain
Let her sing...if it eases all her pain
Let her go...let her walk right out on me
And if the sun comes up tomorrow
Let her be...let her be.
This morning I woke up alone
Found a note sitting by the phone
Saying maybe, maybe I'll be back some day
I wanted to look for you
You walked in I didnt know just what I should do
So I sat back down and had a beer and felt sorry for
Myself.
Let her cry...if the tears fall down like rain
Let her sing...if it eases all her pain
Let her go...let her walk right out on me
And if the sun comes up tomorrow
Let her be...let her be.
Last night I tried to leave
Cried so much I just
Could not believe
She was the same girl I
Fell in love with long ago
She went in the back to
Get high
I sat down on my couch
And cried
Yelling oh mama please
Help me
Wont you hold my hand.
And
Let her cry...if the tears fall down like rain
Let her sing...if it eases all her pain
Let her go...let her walk right out on me
And if the sun comes up tomorrow
Let her be...let her be.

I am proud that you write here. It's a way to express yourself. I think you need to rid yourself of the things that you know are not healthy but first you need to admit you are worth the effort. I know you are. We know you are. One thousand of us standing here saying you are worth it won't mean anything until you know that same truth. Sometimes the things we want, we just cannot have and in the end, it's not really that we wanted that thing, it's just that it was comfortable and we became acclimated to the idea of wanting it. Sometimes the things we want are not good for us and if/when you can realize that as well, you will know when it's time to move on. There is a person in your life who is not healthy for you. I can see that. I can see it so plainly. It won't matter what I see until you can see it on your own, independently from any other obvservations or opinons. Screw it all. Balls to the wall. Let it go and know that it is ok to do so. Move in different circles and find a new thing to love. Not necessarily a person/thing but maybe a new thing to like to do. That can sometimes bring on new people and new passions.
You are worth it. I know it. Do you?
