you reached out in pain so long ago
I could see it in your eyes you
wanted to die I wonder are you still alive
hoping you didn't succumb to circumstances
taking your own life don't know why but I
have the need to know I guess because
I stood by helplessly not knowing what to do
a rich vocabulary but didn't know what to say
I could think of a million things now but now's
probably too late I do completely relate to your plight
being that I have my own demons to fight
I can't say I don't know why people want to die
to live is a try some say it's a sin to do yourself in
but what bible is that in meaning I don't know that
to be a fact still there's a suicide movement
on the rise a rich man poor man fatality I guess
we can only hope love shines a light on the subject
so we can see where we are going instead of falling
still I wonder are you still alive
