I want to tell you something

As you step up to the ledge

I’m right up here with you,

I’m that voice inside your head.

I’m screaming at you STOP

Because once you make that drop

There’s nothing I can do

To bring you back or be with you.

Those pills inside your hand

Those ones that make you numb

Yeah I’m gonna give you hell

And tell you that they’re dumb

No I don’t understand them

I never said I did

But I’ll listen if you’ll tell me

And I won’t ever quit

Because you mean way more to me

Than any of this sh*t

I’m not ready to let you fade away

You’re not allowed to choose

No-one picks their final day

Its not your turn to lose

You were better when you were sober

And the bullet to your brain,

That alcohol induced comma

To take away your pain.

Your snorted disillusion

Lined up gram for gram each day.

It isn’t worth a single thing when you step away

I’d rather be embarrassed 1 hundred thousand days

Than close my eyes to realise that you’ve gone away

An instant brings back a life time

But it doesn’t bring back a life

An up hill battle doesn’t start at the top

And no matter how hard I try I can’t stop that knife

The open wounds on bloody wrists

The razor blades you will insist

It doesn’t make a difference.

Once you’re gone you’re gone

I cannot fix it

Don’t be so stupid

And just let me try

While you’re still alive

Cause when you die, you die.

The end, its over! There’s no coming back.

But if you need the help, I’m here my friend.

Though distant and cold as the world has become.

With social media judging us before we wake up

Give me the chance to guide you away

From whatever is making you choose your final day
