Jay
My best friend Jay
Had to pay
For that boy's sins
That tore her heart, ripped her limbs

She didn't know
That his heart wasn't white as snow
It's not her fault
That her life came to a halt

Heart break
Is all it could take
To jump off the top floor
She wanted love and no more

She only knew me
All I could do was plea
I wanted her back
Her life only went off track

She couldn't be dead
The truth wouldn't come to my head
I didn't, I couldn't believe it
She wasn't an emotional pit

She was the best
She cared if I was stressed
But she's gone
There's nothing to look upon

I had just stood there
Like I didn't care
It haunted me
My dreams couldn't be free

Kept captive, kept awake
The memories made me fake
I felt empty like a rotting corpse
I thought of myself as her skin as it slowly warps

I was falling to the ground
I hated how my heart would pound
But I was to young in my life
I only knew how use a knife

I thought stabbing myself in the heart was the only way
I wanted to be just like Jay
But my dad came home from work to fast
And now I have an attempted suicide past
