Your eyes are covered
your worlds unseen
you hate the person you have come to be
you draw your blood for self release
in hopes of finding inner peace
this world is dark and full of eyes
eyes that are blind to human ties
ties to life and whats to come
you tie the rope, you shoot the gun
laying on the bathroom floor
you plead your case before the Lord
a pool of blood is all around
you see a light, you hear a sound
a sound of cries, not your own
your mothers here, you're not alone
she prays to God to save her son
her dying son who holds a gun
his lifeless body lies at her feet
she holds him and begins to weep
her only son took his life
his happiness, an expensive price
if only you had lived to see
all the good that came to be
you took your life without a thought
you could have tried, you could have fought
life's too hard thats what you said
its got to stop, its got to end
now your family sits home at night
wondering why you took your life
they're not like you, they wont give in
they'll fight and struggle until they win
you probably wish you would have tried
instead of taking your life that night
to live and see your sister grow
to show her all she needs to know
thats the price you paid that night
you pulled the trigger, you quit the fight.
