Can't Let Go

I told him to hold on
To anything that's left
I said keep your head up
don't give up just yet.
I knew his heart was heavy
tears fell from his eyes
I told him to be strong
Then I held him tight.
I knew this was my calling,
his life is in my hands
Cause this boy is so fragile,
It's just something I understand.
He's breaking into pieces
So I will put him together
Somehow I will fix him
I will make him better.
People think I care too much
about a boy I barely know
But I can't watch him fall,
I refuse to let him go.
