About watching someone fall apart before your eyes. When you know they could do so much better. And it then it ANGERS you. And you know you've got to control it. Because it can't help a single thing.

"Wish I could make her pull herself up off the floor" You realize you can't help someone who doesn't want to help themselves.

"Take time to contemplate who you are and where you want to go." Basically what it says. While you're down there on that floor, breaking. Think about who you are. Where you are now? And where you soon want to go. Don't break apart before you think about things that could change your sense of mind at the moment.
