You

I walked across the street
Didn’t see the car approach
Didn’t hear those annoying calls
Till you pushed me out of the dark

I escaped those grasps I am about to receive
I surpassed the time I’m supposed to pass
You took away the clog
In my flooding tub
Cast me aside, you gave me life

This is the world I came to know.
This is the place I’ve accustomed in
Here I am drenched in an invisible sweat
Manipulated by unseen strings
But you, you were there
When all seems to be placed in the end
You were there when I needed someone the most.

Called the puppeteer
Wrote my letter of sighs and byes
I’m almost flying free
From these chains I’m bound upon
Ran out and headed out, jogging with a smile
I head towards you with a radiant face.
You, who gave back my life,

Now I’ve come to depend on you
I’ve come to learn to lean on you
Would you leave too?
Would you go away?
Would you push me back to the dark?
Back to where,
Back to where there’ll be no you.

This is the world I came to know.
This is the place I’ve accustomed in
Here I am drenched in an invisible sweat
Manipulated by unseen strings
But you, you were there
When all seems to be placed in the end
You were there when I needed someone the most.
