My Inspiration

I saw the pain in your eyes,
I felt the worry of your words,
The night you asked me to stop
Stop the hurt I was causing,
Stop the blood I was willing to shed
You said you cared too much,
You had people go through it before,
And you didn't want me to have to do it alone.

I was too stubborn, and too scared to ask for help,
But with you I didnt need to ask,
You offered me everything I needed to get me through a night
I dont think you quite realise, just how much you have done,
Just how much you have stopped me from doing,
Or how often you have pulled me back from the edge.
See the thing is, now every time I pick up a knife, a razor or a blade
I think of your eyes, pleading, your words, caring;
Asking me to stop what I was doing
And I cant hurt you like that anymore,
I cant put you through that pain

You got me through it all Josh,
You help me day after day,
I dont know where I would be without you,
I dont know if I would be here today,
I care about you more that I care about myself,
And I cant hurt you again, I cant let you down
So now when I pick up that knife,
I can put it down again.
