Sometimes you feel sad for the sadness
That you didn't feel when you should've
Sometimes when you've had all that you can take
You find that you didn't take all that you could've

I wish I'd been there to tell you
that it didn't have to end this way
I wish you'd just kept believing
that you really would be sane one day

But you already turned it off —
The outsiders trying to find a way in

Turned off the volume of our voices;
And tuned into the hateful voices within

(Why didn't I see the signs?!)

You were right my friend, when you said
Those voices spoke evil to you
It was those voices which told you
That taking your life was all that you could do

Sometimes I feel sad for the sadness
I should've never had to feel
And sometimes when I think I can't take it anymore —
NO! — Wait! Just give me time. I will heal.

*I miss you more than ever, but take comfort in that you don't have to hurt anymore.
