Subliminal's blog: "Subliminal Lies"

reach out a hand to help others

instead of helping myself

their happiness and well being is far more meaningful than mine

reach out to help those in need of an ear

to take my mind off the pain and emptiness inside

not as a distraction but a true sincerity

i care too much and i play my role

it's not an act, it's just a face to keep them stable

and going, talking, venting it out

letting it out onto the shoulder of someone who can bear it

it's okay, it's alright - i can handle it, i'll listen and do my best to help

and ask for nothing in return, because it's not your concern

here to be used, to be useful, and it's okay

it's alright, i don't mind

touch the tulips with two lips and whisper your secrets

i'll guard them with my life behind my wall

the wall that keeps me propped up for you to lean on
