Standing on top of a bridge
With the Chance to change everything
Looking you right in the eye
Looking up and down
Not knowing what's right and what's wrong
Forgetting the difference between good and bad
Not knowing which way to turn, or who to trust
Feeling all alone
Darkness fills your insides
Slowly destroying you from the inside out
Having no way to stop it, no way to control it
You don't know what to do anymore
  You step closer and closer to the edge
Wondering what it would be like
What would happen?
You get ready to jump
You can’t stand the pain anymore
You can't hold it in any longer
You take one more step to the edge
You bend your knees
You set yourself off soaring
Heading straight to the water
There's no turning back now
You break out in tears
Screaming, knowing you just ended your life
That it's all over now
Never following your dreams, never living out your future
Never seeing what could have been
You’re a couple feet from the ground now
Realizing everything
The difference between good and bad, right and wrong
You wish with all you have that this isn't real
But you just keep falling
You hit the water with a mesmerizing splash
There's so much more pain now
It's slowly disappears
You try to scream nothing happens; you reach for help, no one’s there
You hear sirens getting closer
But now the noise slowly fades
All the pain is gone now
You can't breathe you can't move
Water is filling your lungs, your drowning in your own troubles
Now everything you ever knew everyone you ever meet
Everything you never saw
Everything you never touched
Everything you never felt
Everything that never was
Never will be
