The colour slowly dying from your face
By the vicious pull of depression.
Happiness always last on your list.
Your life is being taken over by the constant longing feeling of sadness.
You’ve lost interest in your favourite things:
Soccer, hanging out with friends, leaving me on the sidelines…
I want to help you, but you always brush me off.
Please, just talk to me.
It’s hard for me to watch you suffer
When I can help you get better.
If only you’ll let me,
But I won’t disobey you.
I’ll give you all the space and time that you need.
But, don’t leave me on the sidelines.
I’ve noticed changes in your behaviour
But, you never see me when I cast a sheep’s eye.
I feel like you took a pair of shears and cut everything apart
The sheep may like a shear in summer but I don’t want one all year round
Especially if it concerns the one I love.
I know that you’re deeply depressed, however, I still believe in you.
Please, don’t go.
Please, don’t leave.
Please, don’t leave me on the sidelines.
Please, just talk to me.
Please, just talk to me.
Please, just talk to me.
I’m always going to be available
Even when it’s late at night and you can’t sleep.
I’ll be here for you
Wherever and whenever in the world
Just don’t go.
Please, don’t go…
I can’t bear the loss of you.
It’ll forever clog me up and I can never escape the depths.
Please, don’t go.
You mean so much to me.
I’ll give you all the space and time that you need.
But, don’t leave me on the sidelines.
You’re my everything, my world, my motivation, my everything…
Please, don’t go.
Don’t leave me on the sidelines.
I’m always here for you.
You’re not ill-fated like you think
Because I see so much more to you than you’ll ever think possible – I believe in you.
