You are my rock, you help me float
A man he sinks without a boat
You are my sails, you guide me home
On stormy seas you are my eyes
On cloudy days you clear the skies
You are the wind, you lead me home
You are my steps, when I can't walk
You are the words when I don't talk
You are in my veins, you flow me home
You are my dreams when I am blind
Once in a lifetime that you find
One who always takes you home
I may not show it enough
Past wounds have left my skin rough
I show emotion like a statue
But underneath I'm paper thin
These walls forever caving in
Im full of heart you know that that's true
Stone heart and nothing on the surface
Skins hard from burning in the furnace
But you are my remedy
(But you are my therapy)
You are my therapy
You are the one I hope remains
Good chemicals inside my brain
I no longer feel alone
It's just science I digress
But I will put love to the test
prove me wrong, I'm not alone
