And when your world is falling around you
I want you to know you can reach out
And I’ll always find you
No matter what this fear is about

And if the sky were to break out in flames
And the oceans echoed with your cries
I would run through the fire
Just to find you and say my goodbyes

And when you’re alone praying for your death
When you’re choking on horror and lost
I will never leave you
And I’ll love you no matter the cost

I want you to know that you can trust me
And I can always give you my hand
I want you to love me
And I just want you to know who I am

I really like your writing style! I especially like the last line, it reminds me of Iris, by the Goo Goo dolls.
