I must admit that I have often thought
of leaving it all behind and letting everything go
But I faced things and with difficulties I fought

I was lost and alone, as I always am,
So many people around me,
Yet no one seems to care damn

They say they understand and love me very much,
But just when I Trust to love, they forget and move on
They don’t even remember me and such

I held the knife so close
as tears, mixed with blood began to fall slowly.
Like a foolish child I cried but thought this is not what I chose

Knowing that I could end it all now
made me shiver and think I can change things but don’t know how

I put the knife away and tried to clean the blood,
that ran faster than I can describe on the hot mud

I knew suicide wasn't the answer I was looking for.
as I was thinking this I fell on the floor

I thought so many bad things happening at once -
They can make you forget
About the good qualities of life and make it bounce

Even though life is hard
and trouble an inevitable part of it

But if you take life too seriously it makes it harder to live

Even If you decide to leave it all behind,
and maybe you will; but I can guarantee that others
your MISTAKE will make your loved ones go blind
