He holds a gun,
Fully loaded,
She holds pills,
Not a prescription,
He holds a rope,
Hung from the ceiling,
She is plugging her nose,
Never liked water anyway,
He holds a razor,
Newly sharpened,
She holds a knife,
From the kitchen,
They share the same fate.
He’s afraid of the trigger,
She’s afraid of what awaits,
He hates splinters,
She never learned how to swim,
He didn’t want to see the vain,
She never heard a heartbeat,
All afraid,
Where were you?
See… Nobody thinks twice,
“Words can’t hurt me.”
Well it hurt them,
Who are these people?
He’s a straight A student,
She’s the head cheerleader,
He’s the top ****,
She’s Miss America,
He’s the boy that gets beat up at school,
She is a lonely echo in the dark, Nobody thought twice,
Nobody looked back,
Their fate was written,
They all knew each other,
Now they understand… Why some people begged to die.
