So here I am at one in the morning, trying to be all heroic and rescue you. But the truth is, I’m the one that needs to be rescued.

It’s safe to fall if you trust the ground you stand on – I swear I would never let you down. ~ Midtown

His entire body seemed to be consumed in one great frown. And I just wanted to get up and say, “I love you, don’t be sad.”

I just want a piece of certainty; I want to know that people will always be there.

When people seem to push you away, that's when they need you the most.

If someone wants to be part of someone’s life bad enough, they will put effort into being there.

Sometimes, when you are covered in mud cause you lost your balance on your two-wheeler, you need your best friend to invite you to his tree house and ask you what happened.

I may take a holiday in Spain, leave my wings behind me, drink my worries down the drain, fly away to somewhere new.

So carry me around like a picture in your purse. Pull me out when things are at their worst. ~ Her Space Holiday

When I lose my ground, I can always remember: this is my reason to stay … you are my reason to stay. ~ Boy Sets Fire, “Fine Art of Falling”

It’s you who I have thought of when I am at my weakest and you who have pulled me through. ~ Sarah Dessen

And I couldn't tell you, but I'm telling you now. Just let me hold you while you're falling apart, just let me hold you and we'll both fall down. ~ Rob Thomas, "Ever the Same"

Only you can save me now … but you were never heroic anyhow. ~ Jillian Anne

Sometimes at the end of the day, you really just want someone to sit with so you can reassure each other it’s all going to be okay.

Hold my head inside your hands – I need someone who understands, I need someone who hears.

I know you don’t want to hear what I say, I know you’re gonna keep turning away. But I’ve been there and if I can survive, I can keep you alive. I’m not above going through it again. I’m not above being cool for a while. If you’re cruel to me, I’ll understand. ~ Billy Joel, “Innocent Man”

I wanted to see you … know that you’re more than just a memory … and tell you that I kept my promise. You didn’t keep yours. You promised you’d be here … but you’re not. ~ Everwood

You’ll say you’d never let me fall from hopes so high, but never is a promise and you can’t afford to lie. ~ Fiona Apple, “Never is a Promise”

It’s not about those who are there when you need them. It’s who has been there the entire time.

I mean, there are times when you have no clue what to say to someone, no clue how to end their pain but to give them a hug. It doesn’t take away the pain, doesn’t make the problem go away, but it gives them this little ounce of hope that makes it all okay … just for one moment. ~ Jacqueline Kelly

Won’t you come away with me tonight? We can fly past the moon and the starlight – it doesn’t matter where you’ve been before. On a night like this, it doesn’t matter where you’ve been before. I’ll love you like this … can’t you see I won’t leave? But you have to open your eyes. Here I stand, take my hand, let go of the fear that you hold. Don’t throw your pearls to the swing tonight, don’t let them take your innocence. Just remember the times that I held your hand and kept you close. Remember the time I held you up and now. ~ East West, “She Cries”

On the street I saw a small girl, cold and shivering in a thin dress with little hope of a decent meal. I became angry and said to God, “Why did you permit this? Why don’t you do something about it?” For a while God said nothing. That night He replied quite suddenly, “I certainly did something about it. I made you.”
