There are times when it all becomes too much
A time when one seeks an emotional crutch
Whether that be something physical
Or something slightly more metaphorical
I'd be lying if I said I'd never sought
Some kind of emotional support(!!!)
Well meaning friends advice heeded
Some clued up ones words not needed

I get it, I really do
Fake me, fake you
I get it, I really do
True me, true you

Innocent in their wisdom and naivity
Re-inforce their positive negativity
Even poorly managed words and deeds
Can be of assisstance in a time of need
A word, a smile, a simple comment
Can provide an emotional supplement
"Suck it up buttercup" and "Grow a pair"
Actually means that person cares

I get it, I really do
Scared me, scared you
I get it, I really do
Brave me, brave you

People can be helpful even with their silence
Boosting all with their sublime confidence
Not just in themselves but also in you
You know these people, at least one or two
Upon whom you manifest a vicarious vampire
To their level of confidence you can but aspire
Take them by the metaphorical hand
Trust me things will turn out grand

I get it, I really do
Bad me, bad you
I get it, I really do
Good for me, good for you
