Learn to Fall

I get it, you have it worse,

I get it, you're in pain,

I get it, I don't matter,

Not to you, anyway.

So when you call my name,

I shall fast come running,

Leave myself behind,

Even as I'm losing time.

Again and again,

Your hero with no end,

Until I cut the line,

And took back what is mine.

Until I cried alone for hours,

Feeling sorry for your soul,

Until I gave up mine,

Searching for a cure.

No cure was found.

No life was lost.

But who needs that,

What I've got this?

A girl who sees me,

As more than just support,

And with her I've learned,

That all you need,

Is to learn to fall,

And not lean on me.
