Live or Die? by Travis Teeter
Sometimes we're torn, broken for the people we care for,
It's not easy to do the right thing. And time is an' issue.
You want to take away all their problems, even if they get more..
And you want to dry away all their tears, even if its only a tissue.
It hurts to see them cry. You're empathetic to their pain,
You're powerless. You can't take care of them all, You're not the best.
You're no Superman. And if you are, you've got a Kryptonite chain.
Break the chain. Do all you can. Help em' through that trial, and test.
"Don't worry..it'll be fine." is how you try help them out,
It doesn't matter. You can't be the answer to the problems they endure.
You cry with them, you listen as they yell, scream, and shout.
You forgive them for it. Most of all, you wish you could find a cure.
Make them smile, Solve all their problems. Always know what to say.
You don't. You're useless. Just drowning yourself until your voice slurs..
"I could've saved you..All because of me.." They'll never see another day.
And now your walking the path they followed. The choice is yours.
