Suicide

Suicide might be an option
But it’s never a solution
I wish that before you ran away
That you would’ve reached the same conclusion
You were always wrestling demons
It was always thick or thin
Your mom had left you
Your father would never let you in
In from the cold
So were left out, all alone
You were always so tired and upset
You had no place to call home
I wish you had talked with me, man
All those times that we sat down to chat
Why couldn’t you level with me, man?
You know I always have your back.
You were so proud,
You refused my helping hand.
Now you’re gone,
Now we’ll never have a chance to chat again.

I wish you hadn’t left us
Could’ve battled and came out strong
You could’ve made a difference
You were so clever,
So why am I only talking to you through song?

Suicide might be an answer
But don’t make it your conclusion
That idea that nobody loves you?
Girl, it’s only a delusion
It’s actually very trivial who you sleep with
Or how many men you kiss.
Everyone makes mistakes
So regardless of yours,
Trust that you would be truly missed.
Take it from your parents,
Or your friends Carissa and Irene,
When you entered our lives
We all felt so serene.
And if you can’t do this for you
Do it for your daughter
If you go, she’ll grow up with out a mother or a father
In time you’ll see
She is your greatest accomplishment and gift
Come on girl,
Please take that knife away from your wrist.

I wish that you hadn’t done it
Could’ve battled and came out strong
You could’ve made a difference,
You were always so clever
So why am I talking to you only through song?

Suicide is an answer
But it’s never a solution
We all go through trials and tribulations,
But we can always work through them.
So whether you’re a stressed college kid
Or a single mom
I ask you to have faith,
Life does go on.
The choices you make,
They effect everyone you know
So before you pull that trigger
Call somebody, just pick-up the phone
There’s always somebody who sheds a tear in the end
A counsoler, a parent, a peer, or a friend
We’ll help you through it, no matter how rough

Sincerely yours,
Your Best Friend
With Unconditional Love
