Roses dead and wilted lie on your grave

Black pedals scattered across the dirt bed

Stems broken like your dreams

Dead at 17 doesn't seem real to me

But it was your time to leave

Soon it will be mine

Because I have cancer just like you did

Soon i'll be dead at 17

If life was a game I’d be dead

If life was a game I would have killed myself multiple times

If life was a game I would have more than one life

If life was a game I could “reset” when I hit game over

If only life was a game I’d be dead already

Fears become reality

Monsters don’t live under your bed

They live inside your head

Eventually you’ll end up dead

Listening to every word they say

It gets worse each day

You try to act like everything is fine

But inside you know it’s a lie

You see things that aren’t there

You hear things that make you scared

You start to go insane

Nothing will be the same

You’ve got me strapped to this bed

I feel my mind leaving my head

I’m close to being dead

I can feel the needle break deep inside of my veins

They tell me I’m insane

But they made me that way

Every day it’s the same old thing

Nothing is what it seems

I swear I’m going crazy

I feel so hazy

There are so many needles in my arm

They said they would do no harm

But look at me and my insanity

Everybody wants to be happy

Nobody wants to be in pain

But you can’t have a rainbow

Without any rain

Past the sadness and all the tears

After fighting all your fears

There is happiness that shines bright

After giving into the fight

You found there was another side

And that depression lied

Eventually we make it out alive

It just takes some time

The sun is setting

The light turns to darkness

The warm turns to cold

Everyone is asleep

Except her

She's awake

Ready to give up

She ties the noose

Tightens it around her neck

She kicks the chair

It ends tonight

She sits in room all alone her depression hanging over her

She can’t sleep at all

She takes out the pain on herself

Leaving her bleeding in the sink

She only see’s the ugly in the world

She grabs a pen and writes the love she longs to have

She looks outside to see the stars that hide behind the sky

We know that she’s a lonely soul we can save

She knows there is beauty in this world

She tries to take control of this

She closes her eyes and remembers hope

She throws away her razor and hides her scars

She looks at the sky once more and see’s the stars
