Let me help you learn to live

Silently the darkness creeps,
As bitterly the heart weeps,
He is lost in this cruel place,
Walls closing in on this space.

Follow him not into this,
Save him not from dark abyss,
he has fallen from this life,
Stabbed cruelly by it's knife.

But I reach out to you,
With a touch sure and true,
Let me hold you as we fall,
I will love you through it all.

Scream in terror at the sights,
Loveless days and horrific nights,
Run away from the searing pain,
To a place where no blood has lain.

Touch my hand I'll save you tonight,
Let me near I'll help you see the light,
Don't leave this world with so much to give,
Please let me help you learn to live.
