Do we beg for help, mercy, understanding
     when in the throes of our weakest moments?

Will those hands help us up
      or push us farther down

What is there to believe in
      when every dream is crushed

Destroyed, devoured
       by callous hearts and thoughtless tongues

Everyone is strong, always right
       until it all goes wrong

It is then, faced with our mortal coil
       that we find out who our friends really are.
Thanks to :iconatticbeneath: for the inspiration.
