Don't
Isn't it enough
For me to say
I can't be enough
What more
Can I give
That I haven't given before
What more
Can I say
That I didn't say
Today
Yesterday
If I needed you
Would you really be there
Or would I be looking for you
Like I used to
Don't ask me
If you can't handle
My answer
Don't chase demons
You don't want to face
If I told you
I was ashamed
What could you do
For me
If I cried
A thousand rivers
Rigt at your feet
What could you do
For me
How could someone like you
Save
Someone like me
Take me
As I come
And get gone
When I come undone
Don't want
You to see
Me
When I get like that
When I break my back
Bending backwards
For my sins
We both know
I gave you the very shirt
Off my back
And if that isn't enough
I have nothing left for you
Rested my very soul
In your palms
And you still
Cry over me
Why can't you see
What that does to me
Why don't you understand
You can't save me
Don't
Just please don't
Not when I can't
And won't
Don't do this
Don't beg
And plead
Don't ask for me
I won't come
Don't come looking
I won't be home
Just please know
I love you so
And if I didn't have to go
I wouldn't
But please
Don't
