I can not be your rescuer
Although I've tried I can not cheer you up I'm too tired now I can not correct your self put downs I'm sick of hearing them all the time I can not pick you up when you're down I've carried you for too long I can not fill you up You've sucked me dry You are a bottomless pit Always draining, never changing I've tried my best to be a good friend! Am I just allowing you to ignore the problem? Sometimes, I need to be lifted up too But how can you be there for me If you can't be there for you?!
