Preservation
When I loosen the laces
And step out of your shoes
It’s because I can’t let your pain
Drown both of us
Someone has to reach in
And pull you out
I can’t do that
If I let you
Pull me in with you
And step out of your shoes
It’s because I can’t let your pain
Drown both of us
Someone has to reach in
And pull you out
I can’t do that
If I let you
Pull me in with you

It's healthy to know our limits. Actually, from my own personal experience, it can also be very heartbreaking. 😐

This is an interesting one… it took 68 times to read and I’m still not sure which way is in and out

Being empathetic is tricky business. Self-preservation is a necessity or you won’t be of any help.
