A Shoulder to Cry on

You bottle your feelings inside
You were just a kid
You have nothing to hide
But open up that lid

It might not feel right
to tell these secrets that pain you
But once you see the light
It's the best thing you will ever do

Your wounds wide open and bleeding
But soon they will be healed
Inside your heart is pleading
For a friend who has a shield

This shield is made with hope
For a new life and better days
This friend will help you cope
with your problems and dismays

A shoulder to cry on
And arms wide open in need
Although the blood had withdrawn
You will continue to bleed

This bleeding isn't of hate
or the pain you've been put through
This bleeding is of love
A love you never knew

This love is for your life
And the friends you have received
Put down that stone cold knife
And you will be freed
