'Insightful Friend' by Ravyn LaRue

You're so paternal
You're the bright eyes I look to while I'm on stage
Whether I'm performing or just talking about life
And you care about me for both

You invited me to lunch
You invited me to sit in on rehearsals
And I hope to coerce you into letting me help

I know I need to crumble in someone's sweet presence
And yours is more trustworthy than that of many
You're more paternal than those who ought to be
And the fact that you support me at this time
In this time of difficulties-
Well, you know...

I need to crumble to someone
And you've seen me cry
You've seen me fragile, and praised me for it
I can't wait for this
I'll confide in you about everything
Since you're the stable shore I've fallen onto often

And your voice in my broken brain was something that drew me back
Now I am home in a place where I belong
And I will tell you everything
Since you are family to me
You are family
