The voices in your head suggest
That you’d be better off dead (no less)
But put those voices to rest
Because that might not be what’s best
So before you choose to depart
Think about it and take heart
‘Cuz don’t ya see, here’s the thing
You never know what tomorrow will bring

Please don’t listen to that voice
That’s telling you, (you have no choice)
But to jump off (of that roof)
It seems right, right now (but where’s the proof)
So before you choose to depart
Think about it and take heart
Cuz don’t ya see, here’s the thing
You never know what tomorrow will bring

You just want the pain to stop
But that’s a rather (severe drop)
And what if you should change your mind
On the way down (only to find)
That unfortunately it’s much too late
For you to now equivocate
Cuz don’t ya see, here’s the thing
You never know what tomorrow will bring

The voices in your head suggest
That you’d be better off dead (no less)
But put those voices to rest
Because that might not be what’s best
So before you choose to depart
Think about it and take heart
‘Cuz don’t ya see, here’s the thing
You never know what tomorrow will bring
