When you turn into someone your not, and you can't help it. You need someone there, that loves you and knows you for the real you, to be strong enough to be there and understand it can't be controlled unless they're there to act as your Lithium..
"We all have a weakness, But some of ours are easy to identify." -- We all have a weakness, some you cannot see there hidden so deep, or not physical at all...
"Look me in the eye, And ask for forgiveness;
We'll make a pact to never speak that word again" -- I forgive you and we'll move on to be stronger together, Im still here for you.
"So when weakness turns my ego up" -- When I become proud and conceited because I am in an episode I cannot conrol...
"I know you'll count on the me from yesterday" -- I know you'll count on the strengh in me to be who I was, not who I am now.
"If I turn into another, Dig me up from under what is covering, The better part of me." --- If my episode turns me into someone I wouldn't be proud of, help me become strong enough to change what I've become for the better.
"Sing this song, Remind me that we'll always have each other, When everything else is gone." -- Tell me that we'll always be together when everything is back to normal, no matter what happens.
"We all have a sickness, That cleverly attaches and multiplies, No matter how we try." -- We all have a sickness, illness or issue that grow, and multiple, like a cancer, no matter how hard we fight to stop it, it sometimes continues to consume us.
"I know you'll act as a clever medicine." -- I know you'll be there to help heal me, be my medicine, and bring me back to reality, and who I really am, and get rid of my sickness.. ect.
Well that's what it means to me atleast.. Mainly because I have Bi Polar Disorder and I know what it's like to become someone your not. And wanting that person that left because of the illness back. Not knowing what was going on at the time; To be there for me and understand I could not help it, I couldn't control it, I need you here to help me be strong, and reasure me we'll make it through.
