It Was What I Needed

It's the death toll climbing higher,
The friends I have almost lost,
It's the knife that came too close to me,
It's the monster I keep inside.

I want to save them all,
From others and themselves,
I don't want to see another hurting person,
It's this that gives me strength.

It was the tears going down her face,
It was the darkness kiling his heart,
It was the song that they sing,
In a way it was everything.

It gave me the strength to stand,
The strength to help,
The strength to cry,
And the heart and strength to help.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

MCR and my life inspired this one. The line "It was the roar of the crowd that gave me heartache to sing." Really really connects with me.
