I've seen the way that you reach when you're all alone
Somebody should tell you if you reach then you'll never grow
I let you lean on me I am an enabler I have to go
You take a rain check maybe you can cash it when you're on your own
Listen to me
Brace yourself
It's gonna get easier
You've got to hit the ground
Before you can turn around
I've seen the way that you dig when you're in your head
Somebody should tell you if you dig then you'll end up dead
I let you hang on me I am a provider of the drugs you take
You come around in the night when your greedy little smile is fake
Listen to me
Brace yourself
It's gonna get easier
You've got to hit the ground
Before you can turn around
Somebody should tell you if you reach then you'll never grow
I let you lean on me I am an enabler I have to go
You take a rain check maybe you can cash it when you're on your own
It's gonna get easier
You've got to hit the ground
Before you can turn around
Somebody should tell you if you dig then you'll end up dead
I let you hang on me I am a provider of the drugs you take
You come around in the night when your greedy little smile is fake
It's gonna get easier
You've got to hit the ground
Before you can turn around

It seems to me the narrator is in a relationship with someone who suffers from depression/anxiety, or maybe just amativeness. They see how their caring and love for that person can actually be doing harm...to both of them and even their relationship. What a beautiful song.
