Did you think about me When you walked into the woods Did you think about your family Or only of the shoulds? Knife in your hand Did you think about how life isn't fair? Ready to take your stand Did you not think your kids would care? Blade to your stomach Did you feel the pain? Already making your summit Was my love just in vain? Blade to your chest Did you stutter at all? Did you realize you were committing theft? Then you began to fall Blade to your wrist Did your life flash before your eyes? Not even for a split Second, did you think about how we would cry? Blade to your neck How did you do it? You turned our lives awreck Then you made the final slit As you laid on the ground As your blood soaked that leaf Did you make a final sound? Or were you content with your relief? As we searched in the woods We prayed for you And we thought of the coulds Our heart turned blue Then we got the news They found your body People began to accuse Us of your death, oddly Time went by And our grief remained Now we look to the sky Whenever you are named

Did you think about me When you walked into the woods Did you think about your family Or only of the shoulds? Knife in your hand Did you think about how life isn't fair? Ready to take your stand Did you not think your kids would care? Blade to your stomach Did you feel the pain? Already making your summit Was my love just in vain? Blade to your chest Did you stutter at all? Did you realize you were committing theft? Then you began to fall Blade to your wrist Did your life flash before your eyes? Not even for a split Second, did you think about how we would cry? Blade to your neck How did you do it? You turned our lives awreck Then you made the final slit As you laid on the ground As your blood soaked that leaf Did you make a final sound? Or were you content with your relief? As we searched in the woods We prayed for you And we thought of the coulds Our heart turned blue Then we got the news They found your body People began to accuse Us of your death, oddly Time went by And our grief remained Now we look to the sky Whenever you are named
