You fake a smile.
Anyone can see it.
You cry a tear.
No one says it.
We all try to help,
But you won't give in.

The walls are caving in,
Time is running out.
Let us in.
Let us help.

You turn away,
They give up.
You yell and scream,
I won't give in.
I will help,
But you just won't give.

The walls are caving in,
Time is running out.
Let us in.
Let us help.

You give up.
I come to you.
You look up,
And here I am.
You gave in.

The walls have stopped.
Time is slow.
I am here,
Let me help.
I just want to help.
