A sobering reminder and boundary-setting moment. Not every wound needs tending, and not every open door deserves to be walked through.

Not Everyone Can Help You
by Sabrina Thorne
[Verse 1]
I reached out with open hands
Hoping someone would understand
But silence met my desperate plea
No one there to comfort me
[Pre-Chorus]
I thought they'd see the pain inside
But they just turned and walked away
Left alone with tears to hide
In the shadows where I lay
[Chorus]
Not everyone can help you
Not everyone will try
Some will leave you stranded
Without a reason why
But in the depths of sorrow
A strength begins to grow
Not everyone can help you
But you can help yourself, you know
[Verse 2]
I searched for answers in their eyes
But found only empty stares
Their words were hollow, full of lies
No solace in their prayers
[Pre-Chorus]
I realized the truth at last
The help I sought was mine to give
The pain, the hurt, the broken past
Only I could choose to live
[Chorus]
Not everyone can help you
Not everyone will try
Some will leave you stranded
Without a reason why
But in the depths of sorrow
A strength begins to grow
Not everyone can help you
But you can help yourself, you know
[Bridge]
It's hard to face the world alone
When all you feel is pain
But deep within, a light is shown
A hope you can regain
[Chorus]
Not everyone can help you
Not everyone will try
Some will leave you stranded
Without a reason why
But in the depths of sorrow
A strength begins to grow
Not everyone can help you
But you can help yourself, you know
[Outro]
So when the world turns cold and gray
And no one's by your side
Remember, you can find your way
With courage as your guide
