Thank you for your warnings

I´m glad my health

Is of your concern

And if you think those little pills

Might do me harm
Asking if others think the prescribed pills might be harmful.
Just come on down
Inviting others to understand the singer's mental state.
Take a ride into my mind

Will you still heal me now

Will you still tell me
Seeking reassurance about the severity of the situation.
That it´s not that bad
Asking for confirmation that the situation is not too difficult.
Tell me that it´s not
Desiring reassurance about the perceived difficulty.
That hard to take
Asking to be told that it's not hard to cope.
Will you be

Scared like me

And offer me your shoulder
Requesting emotional support and understanding.
For the night
Asking for a comforting presence during difficult times.
You don´t know anything
Stating that others lack knowledge about a threat.
About the threat

I never quite forgot
Acknowledging a lingering memory or trauma.
At least the taste of come

Sometimes I wish that I

We still had our place

And if you noticed
Pointing out the growth of cynicism in the singer.
How my cynicism grows

Maybe it´s time

To read between the lines
You don´t know anything

About the thoughts

I never meant to have
Expressing nostalgia for a time captured in photographs.
When only photographs reminded me

You don´t know anything about
Highlighting a lack of understanding about personal struggles.
The void some people have to face

So don´t pretend to understand

Just stay right here and hold my hand

And make me feel like I belong
Desiring a sense of belonging through connection.
