[hometext] => Whevever we run out of whatever it is that keeps us sane, he's always our sanity generator, Am I right, girls?
[bodytext] => Like A bed that I can fall on, So I don’t fully hit the ground. Like a person I can talk to, When there’s no one else around. Like a rock that does some damage, When I can’t do it myself. Like a joke that births some smiles, When fake ones no longer help. Like an instant friend and listener, When I feel like I’m alone. Like a third shoulder I can lean on, When I cannot use my own. You’re so many extra things, When I run out of what is mine. An extra day or two, When my own clock runs out of time. You’re like a shoulder I take with me, Every single place I go. So that if my own aren’t strong enough, I still will not hang low. Always there prepared to fight, When I’m to scared to fight for myself. Like nothing I have known before, Nothing I’ve ever felt. Whenever I try to be everything, That you always are for me. I get lost and turned around, And you put me back where I need to be. I’ve failed at all the attempts Of being your third shoulder so far. Everything I want to be for you, Is something you already are.
