I dont what you’re feeling
But I can listen, I’ll keep hearing
And I can be there when you cry
I can stop you from suicide
Let me in, through your walls
locked with passwords all along
your defenses standing strong
your emotions like a song
filled with meaning, but it seems
we’re still guessing what it means
the rhythm, perfect
the drums beat
please, tell me what you think
