We are all a little weird and life is a little weird and when we find someone whose weirdness is compatible with ours we join up with them and fall in mutual weirdness and call it love.

I mess up
You save me
The process repeats
I mess up
I fall down
You pick me up
The cycle repeats
I mess up
I feel depressed
You lift my spirits
Repeat

Why does my life follow this pattern
Why can’t I just stay on top
Why does this all even matter
Because all I ever do is fail, again
You stay by me when no one understands
You came to me when no one even dares
You care about me when no one else does
Yet I ignore you and the cycle repeats

(Repeat 1st verse)

(bridge)Help me God to live for you
Help me God to work this out
I want to do all I can do
To honor you

This piece I wrote after I again fell into some things I shouldn't have been in. It is about my struggles and the only way out of them through God.
