I smile for you when you can’t I pick you up when you can’t get up I provide for you when nobody else can I listen when all they do is talk And I talk when you need support Now maybe I get down to things But if no one does who will? I make ends meet I starve myself So you can have something to eat I give you my last cigarettes When you have none I risked my own life So you wouldn’t pick up a gun I did time To keep you out of a cage of animals I went to the zoo Just so you wouldn’t have to I gave When you had nothing I never took When you had something I spoiled you To show you what you can accomplish someday I planted a seed inside you So you don’t have to pray I took on a gang Because they hurt you I felt no pain in the hospital But rage for the reason why it all happened And I got rid of them So you could be safe I gave you love without saying it I even put myself up for hell Just to see you do well I hide myself from you Because the bad fallows me wherever I go And I know that it’s worth it Because to me it feels good I am always there When you don’t know it I just am Because I must be a psycho in love Because I have no limit to the things I do To protect you And yeah Remand sucks At least it’s only jail and not prison And these words You will never hear or see or know from me Because you see me as a psycho And I can only laugh That’s just me And you will never know And I won't even say...
Reason for writing:
Your name is safe with me. And you won’t know I wrote this for you, because you really don’t know who this is for, and that’s how it should always be. A secret to the grave
