The Reason

I spent so many nights before you
Wondering how I could kill myself
With the items in my overnight bag
Drink hand lotion

Shaving raiser to the wrist
Bottle of Advil down with a bottle of water
Didn�t matter how
Just as long as someone would remember me

But I didn�t think anyone would
Who would remember me
Who would have missed me
One less girl in the hallway

You never knew that side of me
You came into the painting when I needed you
For some reason you said you�d missed me
When I left that weekend

You confused me with that
I didn�t get how you missed me
And there was something in your voice
That made it true

I started changing that first month
Told you things
My other half didn�t even know
Wrote you into my life

And accepted who you were
So I started to change who I was
Grow with you
Nights were now spent on the phone with you

No longer thinking about
How to bring about my downfall
But now how to stay alive long enough
to be with you

�I've found a reason to show
A side of me you didn't know
A reason for all that I do
And the reason is you�
