Never A Missed Call

Time and time again

You've said it

I feel I let you down

When I am not so much as around



Words like spears

You know just how to kill me

Attack only what I can do to

Make me not want to kill you



If I knew it right

I'd say I cannot stand another fight

When these fights we fight

Aren't even a fight at all



I am here to be a target to

Throw your spears all you'd like to

I can take it all

If it helps you from taking the fall



Afterall

What haven't I done right?

Why does each day seem like a brand new fight...

I struggle and fall, deep down I take it all

I take it all for you

I'd take the fall for you



Call me selfish, call me foolish

Call me anything you need

Just as long as it helps you

From making you knees bleed -You know I

Am always here to take away your fear

But only if you'd like

I jsut try to do what's right

And what is true- is that I love you

In a way you can't immagine

It's a way you can only read about in a book

Where a man goes around healing sickly

Loving each individually

Call me a Jesus Freak

I can sweep you off your feet, if you'd like



My thoughts and views are writtin in plain view

You can agree, got can even spit at me

Just don't tell me what I am,

Do not tell me who to be

I will always be that 'loner girl'

The one who know the land just as well

As the palm of her hand



I know I was the one for you

Maybe still am, you never know

I'll stay away and never step on your toes

When you want me, call and I'll answer

Just don't use me to abuse me

To try and bring me down

I know you want me gone away

But I will always be around...for you

And for everyone

Kill me, come on I dare you

Make me want to bleed

If it helps you, to be a better person

Then I will take it all for you

Afterall- isn't that what friends as loving as I am DO?

Author's Notes/Comments: 

This one is to anyone who ever feels like they ever need a friend.  Anyone who cannot help but hurt others to feel better about something. I give you permission to use me just for that, I forget it all in a day anyway, for a new day comes tomorrow to make everything alright again.
