She took two hundred too many pills
And he held a gun to his temple
Their teeth were grinding
And their lungs contracting
Their hearts were racing
Almost as fast as their thoughts
And their last few seconds
Seem to drag on for days
And life bid them farewell
As they slowly drifted away.

And mom walked in with some more bad news
The house was emptier than the skin under her bruises
And she stepped through the door without moving an inch
There was her baby, crumpled on the floor

And momma fell down, down, down
And never got up again

And daddy heard her angry cries
From all the way across the world
As she was screaming and screaming
“Our baby is gone!"

Daddy would never
Feel again

Your brother grew up to be a
Famous writer
About the emptiness of dysphoria
He met the still life
And it was not soon after
He heard the bad news
That he was found on the rafters
Hanging by a noose

And little baby girl
Grew up to be a cutter
Because her older brother, sister
Couldn’t even bother
With a little girl like her.

One night she went to deep
and the sad little drops
Never stopped

Your best friends, A, B, C and D
All struggled behind you
And you outshone them
Until the darkness won

A, B, C and D struggle no more
Because they struggled with you
Until the end

And you pretty young martyr
Full of life and love
You threw it all away

You’re in tv screens now,
Newspaper cut outs.
Candles were lit all over the town
A rash of suicides broke out

But one drop will ripple the whole ocean
And tsunami waves will fall
And the drop will never know those bitter words spoken
Because they dropped it all.

He died in a puddle of blood,
Her in a puddle of tears
The next day was met by the rising sun,
And so it was, for years and years.
