I Wish

You were there when I needed you,
You were there when I didn't.
You were there when he beat me,
You were there when she died.

You were always there for me,
I was never there for you.
I should have known.
I should have seen the cuts on your arms.

I wish I noticed,
Those cuts you tried to hide.
I wish I noticed,
The way you gazed at me from the side.

But I wish you noticed,
The way I smiled at you,
The way I always wanted to be with you,
The way I always asked for you.

I wish you could see,
See the way I miss you.
I wish you could see,
See the world I see.

I wish I was there,
When you needed me the most,
I wish I could have saved you,
From yourself.
