As I was sitting at the desk my thoughts where ensnared I thought to my self I wouldn't hang even if dared That really skipped over my mind I get laughed at because I'm blind Just because i can't see the people I'm with Doesn't mean I don't know who you are I can hear you for miles about to snicker That's what drove me closer to the chair It's just not fair As my mind fills with sadness and despair I tie the rope around my head so tight it rips out my hair and it goes everywhere Thoughts of all the times together keeps me on the edge of the chair Contemplating if I should jump but i just stare at the floor Then with every thought considered i push the chair away with my toes And my body drops like a bag filled with sand It doesn't land It's hung from a rope This all started because I mope Right before I jumped I wished there was still hope I was so sad about what they had If I stuck around I could've been a dad But now I'm just hanging from a tight rope Wishing for things i can never have

Tight ropes
As I was sitting at the desk my thoughts where ensnared I thought to my self I wouldn't hang even if dared That really skipped over my mind I get laughed at because I'm blind Just because i can't see the people I'm with Doesn't mean I don't know who you are I can hear you for miles about to snicker That's what drove me closer to the chair It's just not fair As my mind fills with sadness and despair I tie the rope around my head so tight it rips out my hair and it goes everywhere Thoughts of all the times together keeps me on the edge of the chair Contemplating if I should jump but i just stare at the floor Then with every thought considered i push the chair away with my toes And my body drops like a bag filled with sand It doesn't land It's hung from a rope This all started because I mope Right before I jumped I wished there was still hope I was so sad about what they had If I stuck around I could've been a dad But now I'm just hanging from a tight rope Wishing for things i can never have
