When life gets rough and tough
When it seems like you've had enough

When you stand at the edge of the abyss
Tortured by the life you reminisce

Just know there is a way
Tomorrow will be a new day
Come outside and play
Instead of sitting far away

There is still power within you
To change, to overcome this blue
The pain, the misery is all true
But ending it all will simply cause chaos to ensue

You will triumph over life
Don't let it triumph over you
The future is in your hands
Just see it through

You are better than death
You still have your breath
Live a life you will remember
Instead of ending your fading ember

When life seems to be a slough
When your voice is ****

When there seems to be no bliss
When there is nothing left to miss

Just know you are a shining ray
You were not meant to lay
Don't jump over the archway
Make your fears obey

You had once flew
You will come through
You will experience that breakthrough
Just don't regret that you withdrew

You are better than you think
Even if life seems out of sync
Live life like you don't have another chance
Don't end it out of circumstance

Those who decided to end their own lives
Are a lesson to us who thought of taking the dive
All of us mortals are still alive
Let's not end our chance to thrive

Let's not get stuck in the smaller picture
Just wait for the storm to flicker
Think about the bigger picture
You will ultimately be a victor
