i have stood here, part 2... read the lyrics.

I can’t help her out with this one- I caught on as the problem slid.
There are people around who love her, but she’s treating this like it doesn’t exist
She claims it’s about control in the midst of all her pain
But I hope she knows that she’s lost control in place of what she thinks she’s gained

She replaces her meals with coffee, low fat milk to go
And everyday I worry how far she’s gonna go
If I try to bring it up to her I know she’ll push away
So she makes me guess when she’s a mess at what’s going through her head that day

And I’m begging her to talk to me
Though I don’t expect she will
But it kills me just to stand aside
And watch her down another pill

So maybe I’m being selfish
And maybe I don’t understand even when I think I can
But maybe it’s because I know that your faith walked out the door
It’s somewhere I don’t want you to have to go anymore

You’re going through confusing times, but that is nothing new
You’re so damn introspective, so confusion’s what I’d expect from you
No one’s got a grasp on clarity when difficulty
Rushes in, but now’s the time to start again

And I’m begging her to talk to me
Though I don’t expect she will
But it kills me just to stand aside
And watch her down another pill

So maybe I’m being selfish
And maybe I don’t understand even when I think I can
But maybe it’s because I know that your soul has hit the floor
It’s somewhere I don’t want you to have to go anymore

So maybe I’m being selfish
And maybe I don’t understand even when I think I can
But maybe it’s because I know that you’ve been here before
It’s somewhere I don’t want you to have to go anymore
It’s somewhere I don’t want you to have to go anymore
It’s somewhere I don’t want you to have to go… go alone… anymore
