for the strong and the not so strong

All I can hear are the crickets
And the whistle from some lonely freight
I've been working so hard to make everything right
but for now it's ... it'll just have to wait

Cause tonight I want ... I'd like you to rock me to sleep
I'd like you to sing me a song.
I'm tired of trying to figure things out
And I'm tired of being so strong.

I've never been too good at asking
I'm more apt to do it alone
And it's strange how a lot of us think something's wrong
If we can't do it all on our own

It's funny how times when you're hurting
Make what's so familiar seem strange
So when you need help, it's hardest to ask
And it always takes so long to change


yes, we are weak too. we also need someone to rock us to sleep. we also need someone who can be stronger than us, someone we can lean on. we also need someone with whom we can be weak with, someone who will catch us when we fall, someone who can push us when we can not go on anymore.

to the strong bats who think that they are alone, know this... there are a lot of us who people tend to overlook, there are a lot of us who people think we can handle everything.

we are not alone. we have each other.
