Survive

Well I’ve stayed awake, for hours on end,
Just tryin to find, a way to make this work,
And what they, and what they, don’t say,
Is just how hard, life can really be.
Save your self, make it out, alive,
But keep in touch, trying to survive-
And we both know just what, I’m doing here,
I told you that, I would wipe away those tears,
And though you’ve failed me I will not let you down,
The least a son can do, is stay around.
