Hello, may I help you?


Hello, may I help you? 

I don't have much, 

Not even time is on my side, 

but I have ears

a heart 

that's a start. 

I am a people pleaser 

Don't worry you can ask me

Tell me, talk, vent, yell, scream, laugh, cry 

Just do!

Can I help you? 

I want to be a friend, 

I know what it like to suffer

how can I let you suffer? 

My mind is scattered and full of thoughts 

I can understand 

I can listen 

I can try,

Can you? 

You can't talk straight, you can't move your body right 

Can't remember the steps to this little dance called life 

But we can dance togther,

Step on toes and learn the beat 

1, 2, 3

1, 2, 3

Follow me and I'll follow you 

Help me help you

I know what it is like to be stuck in your head, 

to need a friend, 

Talk it out, 

have a plan, 

Let's do it together 

help another

pass it forward, 

a smile, a laugh, a compliment 

it doesn't take much 

How can I help you? 

We are all human, 

We all sin, we all bleed,

We don't want to be walked on, 

We all want to be heard, 

Some form or another, 

Fly little bird 

Help me help you, 

I am not perfect, 

neither are you

Don't be araid of me, 

Don't be afraid of life,

It's scary I know,

I'm scared too,

But take my hand and we'll push through! 

Hello, may  I help you?
