Alone together

Alone, in a cloudy winter night
I seek protection from the storm that will soon hit
I ring my house's doorbell
Yet noone answers

I look for another place to stay the night
My friends all seem to be away
The strangers ignore my very presence in the streets
As if I'm a sick animal, not better than dead

Noone hears me
Noone sees me
Noone cares
Noone wants to understand

And yet

I see one person
She sees me aswell
The hurt that hurt me once, the girl that i hurt once
What is she doing out in the cold?

She's shaking, freezing
-Could it be, that she has been out here longer than i have?-
I try hugging her, to warm her body
But she's still cold

I give her my scarf that covered my neck
I give her my gloves that protected my hands
I share with her my hopes of a sunny day
And now her body seems to warm mine, back

I don't care about the storm and the rain
They might hurt me, still, I'll always stand up
If i don't, how will i carry her with me?
How will she survive, knowing that someone stronger than her did not?

I'll warm her up
She'll warm me up
Until we both have a torch inside of us again
Until we both are forever safe from the storm
