don't fade away

if  you want me to be honest,
i wish all of your words were a lie.
i wish the things you said to me
were just some sort of question
you were sorting out in your mind.
but i don't think that's the case, i think it's all the truth
and it scared me to think you could be walking away from
the things you've always held close to you.

it's a struggle to rise above it
it's hard to stand against
the current of the world that's pulling you so hard one way
when all you want to do
is go the other way.

this all might be a little harsh
and i don't mean it all entirely
i just don't want to see you be
like everyone else i've seen
fade away the same.
