Don't tell me this is a test
That I am truly blessed
That I am chosen for this task
Apart from all the rest

Don't come to me for answers
That can only come from me
Don't tell me how my grief will pass
That I will soon be free

Don't stand in pious judgement
Of the bonds that I must untie
Don't tell me how to suffer
Don't tell me how to cry

My life is filled with selfishness
My pain is all I see
But I need you, I need your love
Unconditionally

Accept me for my ups and downs
I need someone to share
Just hold my hand, and let me cry
And say, "My Friend, I care"
