To Everyone at Shout, by Jonny Benjamin
I can’t tell you how grateful I am
To everyone at Shout.
For when I’m feeling stuck
You take away the doubt.
The doubt I can get through
And make my way out from this blue
So for that I say..thank-you.
I can’t tell you how grateful I am
To everyone at Shout.
For the way that you just listen,
Put yourselves in my position,
For the way you never judge.
But show me empathy and love.
I can’t tell you how grateful I am
To everyone at Shout.
For the precious time you give away,
To help a person through a day
When hope has disappeared
You return it right back here.
So don’t underestimate
What you give
When I don’t want to live.
Please know the difference
You make.
When I feel I’m going to break.
And give yourself
The love,
You give so much to us.
The ones you’re always there for.
The ones you so generously care for.
