Not Alone.

As I stand on the edge of this building, I look down
Just like they say I should not.
I look far and wide at the world in front of me.
I see them.
I see all those people walking, moving, trying to live,
Trying to survive.
I see pain, sadness and fear.
I see you.
Your eyes give you away.
I see you screaming for help
I hear you falling under the weight you carry.
I don't know you,
You don't know me,
But
I am here.
I am not afraid.
Take my hand,
Walk beside me
No matter where the road takes us, you are not alone.


Take my strength
Make it yours
Together we will shoulder this weight,
Together we will take on the world.
Take my courage
Make it yours
Together we will rise above
Together we will overcome
Take my heart
Make it yours
Together we will press on
Together we will survive.
I am here.
I am not afraid.
Take my hand,
Walk beside me
No matter where the road takes us, you are not alone.


Together we will stand
We will never give up.
We will never give in.
We will never surrender.
We will stand against any storm.
We will stand against every hurt, every fear, every sadness
Together we will break out of any cage.
Even the sky cannot be our limit,
Because nothing will hold us back.
Nothing will hold us down.
I am here.
I am not afraid.
Take my hand,
Walk beside me
No matter where the road takes us, you are not alone.


As I step away from this ledge, I will take you with me.
As we walk among those people, we will take them with us.
Together we will stand
Together we will live.
We are here.
We are not afraid.
Take our hands,
Walk beside us
No matter where the road takes us, we are together.
We are not alone.
