Suicide Letter

Suicide Letter

Verse One
He sat writing a dear letter
One that he knew wouldn’t make his life any better
His last letter one that may make people cry
He’s shed tears all his life he no longer cares if he dies
And his family and friends won’t care to see again
Only 18 and he wants his life to end
The thoughts that cross his mind of rope or pills
Which is easier, which one gives him less chills?
He’s doing a service; He didn’t expect to be so nervous
Death, he thought, was his entire life’s purpose
His regrets he learned to handle on the surface
But inside his regrets are tearing him apart
He just hasn’t learned how to fix his broken heart
For everyone who just left him out in the dark
He’s writing this for you
The people who loved him too
Though you only loved him when you needed something for him to do

Chorus(2x)
It’s life, that’ll stab you in the back
Yet call you its best friend what do you think of that
And yet you believe it and it starts all over again
That’s life and it’ll always fuck you over friend

Verse Two
He tries to remember all those lonely Septembers
Those nights where he would stare at the TV forever
It’d be hours before he went to his room to cry
Put his head in his pillow and hope to die
He hates his life; He hates the morning sunshine
He hates the fact he’s contemplating suicide
But he just doesn’t care anymore
Keeps the music loud for the outside he learned to ignore
Sick and tired of waiting for the right one to wash ashore
Wishing he could remember waking up happy but now what for
He picks up his pen and goes back to his letter
Looking at his past isn’t gonna make him feel any better
Hatred has been building up inside him forever
He wants his blood to drop just like rainy weather
He wants people to feel guilty for pushing him this way
Though he feels people still won’t give him the light of day

Chorus(2x)
It’s life, that’ll stab you in the back
Yet call you its best friend what do you think of that
And yet you believe it and it starts all over again
That’s life and it’ll always fuck you over friend

Verse Three
He sits thinking of some way to end his mayhem
Looks at his wrist and wonders if he can just slit them
Let the blood run like a stream onto the paper
He believes this will make their guilt feel greater
See the blood of their son on the words he wrote
He looks at his last line at his last quote
“By the time you finish this, the blood will have dried
My body taken to a place underground to hide.
I can’t sleep at night so I hope death provides the rest
That I need to get. I won’t say goodbye to the people I hate
I wrote this letter just to aggravate all of you for you know what you do.”
He couldn’t think of one last line
One last sentence that could stand that test of time
His mind couldn’t come up with anything clever
So he wrote a big FUCK YOU at the end of his suicide letter

Chorus
It’s life, that’ll stab you in the back
Yet call you its best friend what do you think of that
And yet you believe it and it starts all over again
That’s life and it’ll always fuck you over friend
