I've Been

Standing in this room Well I wonder what comes now I know I have to help her But hell if I know how And all the times that I've been told The way her illness goes The truth of it is no one really knows And every day this act we act gets more and more absurd And all my fears just sit inside me screaming to be heard I know they won't, though, not a single word I've been here, at her side When she called, when she cried How could she leave me on my own? Will it work? This cure? There's no way to be sure But I'm weary to the bone And whenever she goes flying I keep my feet right on the ground Oh now I need a lift and there's no one around And I never had to face the world without her at my side Now I'm strolling right beside her as the black hole opens wide Mine is just a slower suicide I've been here, for the show Every high, every low But it's the worst we've ever known She's been hurt, and how But I can't give up now 'Cause I've never been alone I could never be alone
