If You Only Knew
do you want to help?
or to see if you were right?
either way can you handle it?
because i can't and yet,
holding it in, is what i do best,
nobody can relate,
to what i go through,
if you only knew,
you too would know,
why suicide seems like a good plan,
it was the only way to get rid,
of this hell people call life,
after seeing the light,
i came and realize,
there more to life,
but, too much to carry at times,
i guess that when you take it,
one step at a time.

Fighting Through Life
losing patience with life,
can't handle things that are not working,
feeling frustrated every step of the way,
how do you deal?
when stuff not going your way?
i would say life just $uck$,
but that would be too easy,
life is hard,
i'm tiried of fighting through it,
it's a uphill battle,
that i seem to be losing,
don't know why?
maybe because along the way,
i gave up a fight,
i want nothing to do with,
would you agree?
life is never what it seems,
i guess only in dreams,
but fighting for what you want,
is just not that easy,
everybody strive for that peace in life,
when would the hell would i get mine! !

I Was Young
i was young,
i didn't know any better,
i've thought the only way out,
was to take my life,
it wasn't getting any better,
people don't understand,
what i have to put up with,
but, in the end i've realize,
suicide is never the answer,
no matter how bad you want to,
so many people will miss you,
would you want that?
everybody hurt because you're gone,
mad because you left without a good-bye,
but, what can i say,
i didn't know before,
what i know now.

Suicide 2
suicide
a simple word that means so much more
suicide
a mean of escape that shuts the door
suicide
get ready to jump
suicide
take one more breath
suicide
are you sure you want to carry out this threat?
suicide
this is your last chance to walk away
suicide
did you say good-bye?
suicide
it ends your life
and stops your friends and families life in time

Her Bliss
Death is in the flower's heart –
Why to cry for life of any petal?
Death in purple ink of weary pens
Betrays the written yearnings
On her scented paper.
Death is laughing in her cry;
Her broken heart forlorn upon the sleeve.
Death ignores the plight of any purity –
He doesn’t care or seem to be aware of
What her dewy eye desires,
For Death beckoned:
'Embrace the jar! '
And yes, she did –
For Death, of course.
After all, no other man would
Open up her hand and bid her with a kiss,
So Death became her bliss.

The Unexplained
why do we lose,
the people who not meant to go?
will we ever get an answer?
we want people to live life with us,
but with in time,
it will be cut short for some,
life is unexpected,
you never know what will happen,
but, even though they are gone,
they watch over us,
they are our angels,
helping us through when times get rough,
god has a plan for them,
to take away there pain,
but, what he gives you in return is powerful,
it's a whole new look on life,
it's to grow to the person he wants you to be,
losing a friend or family is not the end of the world,
but only a journey to this place called life.

Minute By Minute (Dobbie Brothers)
(Michael McDonaldLester Abrams)
Hey, don't worry, I've been lied to
I've been here many times before
Girl, don't you worry, I know where I stand
I don't need this love, I don't need your hand
I know I could turn, blink, and you'd be gone
Then I must be prepared any time to carry on
But minute by minute by minute by minute
I keep holding on
Oh, minute by minute by minute by minute
I keep holding on
You will stay just to watch me, darlin'
Wilt away on lies from you
Can't stop the habit of livin' on the run
I take it all for granted like you're the only one
Livin' on my own
Somehow that sounds nice
You think I'm your fool
Well, you may just be right
'Cause minute by minute by minute by minute
I keep holding on
Oh, minute by minute by minute by minute
I keep holding on
Call my name and I'll be gone
You'll reach out and I won't be there
Just my luck you'll realize
You should spend your life with someone
You could spend your life with someone
Minute by minute by minute by minute
I'll be holding on
Oh, minute by minute by minute by minute
I'll be holding on...

I Can't Take This
why are you yelling at me?
do you care?
that i'm just thinking of taking pills,
why bother with this life?
it not getting better,
i have no idea where i be in ten years,
call me crazy,
but this stuff is just too much,
trade places,
go through life being me,
i can't take it,
i have all of this stuff,
but, yet can't fix what i want,
why should i get help?
life is always going to be unfair,
why put up with it?
there no happy ending,
this not a fairy tale,
when are people going to wake up?
i can't deal with this,
i just want to put my life to an end,
people may care,
but, am i just being selfish?
wanting to take life,
because this here,
i call it HELL!

In My Time
(copyright nazareth, tiflis tunes,inc.-ascap)
In my life theres places Ive seen,
Places Ive been in my life.
In my life theres things I have done,
Times I have won in my life.
Ships I have known,
Winds that have blown.
In my time were people who cared,
People who shared in my time,
Welcomed the good accepted the bad,
Enjoyed what I had in my time.
People Ive known
Times on my own
And now Im growing old,
In memory I can hold
My picture book unfolds and i
Can feel myself grow cold.
In my life theres times to forget,
Things to regret in my life,
May have done wrong but tried to do right
I followed the light in my life,
But now the lights grow dim,
My days are closing in.

I Turn To You
when i'm feeling very low,
you are the one i turn to,
when nothing seem right,
you are the one i run to,
you know what to say,
you know how to get through to me,
if there wasn't a great person like you,
i don't know where i would be,
you open up my eyes,
and help me realize,
there is more here,
that i seem to be missing,
or just don't want to see,
but, you pull me back to earth,
when all i want to do is quit,
quit everything i have to go through,
quit my whole life,
but, you stop before,
i make a mistake,
that i know i will regret,
once i'm gone,
and leave this life,
i think of what i'm doing,
it help me fix what i'm doing wrong,
help me see it's not the way to go,
there is more to my life,
than just the hurt and the pain i'm feeling,
but, it become clouded,
when temptations to end my life,
becomes a pain in the @$$,
when i talk to you,
my problems disappear,
the way i feel about myself,
begins to fade,
into power to fight for what i can do,
to prove there is more to me,
than a girl who is just suicidal,
because days will get better,
with you by my side,
i will no longer think of suicide,
as my only way out,
i just become afraid of what life throws at me,
to think that the only way to go,
i don't know why,
maybe because for so long,
that was the way i thought,
if things don't go my way,
suicide is the way to go,
it tooken me so long,
just to realize,
that don't have to be me,
because there is more to me,
that you have helped me to see.

Dear suicide
Dear suicide
Why I ‘am alive?
Suicide suicide
Why is so sad?
A lot of pain in my life
Suicide suicide
My heart is so black
Full of pain and sadness
Suicide suicide
My thoughts were so nice
But now I’m so sad
Suicide suicide
I always cry, don’t hurt me again
I just want to be free and fly
Suicide suicide
I don’t want to cry anymore
All I want is fly in the sky
Suicide suicide
The end is coming for me
The beginning of the end of my life
Suicide suicide
Just let me rest in peace
And never come back
Suicide suicide
Time to go
I say goodbye
Suicide suicide
Thanks for listened to me
I’ll see you in my new life
Suicide suicide
Adios
Ciao
Goodbye.

Complicated Suicide
Another Complicated Suicide,
it all went according to plan.
Another Complicated Suicide,
will be the one that killed me.
The one that i tried to cut myself down,
i belong to heaven.
The one that I will do over again,
I will be gone for good.
Another Complicated Suicide,
another one that failed.
Another Complicated Suicide,
and it is the same old shit.
Tried to cut myself to die,
i guess it is not my time.
Same old trip,
that did not work.
Another Complicated Suicide,
Man, I did not do it right or something.
Another one of my stupid suicide's,
Why am i still alive.

Learning How To Get Back Up
when you look into my eyes,
you will see,
i'm not the same girl,
you thought you knew,
oh no,
take a second,
and realize i'm stronger,
than the first time you seen me,
i'm a girl who grew up,
i realized that being stubborn,
was okay, just as long as you,
wasn't dealing with me,
people hate people who know,
what they want out of life,
i use to think it was a bad thing,
because you made me seem,
like i was close minded,
but, now i only see,
i knew my path in life,
i could see where i wanted to be,
in a way that scared you,
i was younger than you,
with more options of where i wanted to go,
i knew how to speak up for what i wanted,
i never let what people say be right,
because in the back of my mind,
i knew what needed to be done,
if i failed, i know it was my fault,
only to get back up and try again,
but, letting somebody else tell me what i should do,
was where i lost myself,
i fell but, lost sight on,
how to pick myself up,
but, after so many failures,
i've learned something,
the best thing you can do,
is go the way your heart tells you to go.

She’s Gone
Eyes bemused –
A disconnect
Dermal swathes of young and old
Reject the guessing of your age
You’re blind –
A blueprint for blankness
Your dreaming pipes through nothingness –
Are you still afloat? – atop the oceans,
Heaving, heavy over Hell,
Boiling, spoiling in a mind that couldn’t cope.
Ah! but Death smiles
And so do you
Kissing Him
Is all to do!

Good Times Are Killing Me
MODEST MOUSE - The Good Times Are Killing Me
Album: Good News For People Who Love Bad News (2004)
The good times are killing me.
Here we go!
Got dirt, got air, got water and I know you can carry on.
Shrug off shortsighted false excitement and oh what can I say?
Have one, have twenty more "one mores" and oh it does not relent.
The good times are killing me.
Kick butt buzz-cut dickheads
who didn't like what I said.
The good times are killing me.
Jaws clenched tight we talked all night,
oh but what the hell did we say?
The good times are killing me.
The good times are killing me.
The good times are killing me.
Fed up with all that LSD.
Need more sleep than coke or methamphetamines.
Late nights with warm, warm whiskey.
I guess the good times they were all just killing me.
Got dirt, got air, got water and I know you can carry on.
The good times are killing me.
Enough hair of the dog to make myself an entire rug.
The good times are killing me.
Have one, have twenty more "one mores" and oh it does not relent.
The good times are killing me.
Shit-kicker city slickers who all wanted me dead.
The good times are killing me.
Get sucked in and stuck in late nights
with more folks that I don't know.
The good times are killing me.
The good times are killing me.
The good times are killing me.
The good times are killing me.
The good times are killing me.
The good times are killing me.
The good times are killing me.
The good times are killing me.
The good times are killing me.

Do You Care What I've Been Through?
do you hear me when i speak?
do you care what i have to go through?
i question my existance,
from time to time,
wondering if i will be happy,
if there was no me,
it seems like a lovely plan,
because than i have no $h! t,
i'll be free from a life i don't want,
because of everything i've been through,
makes me think of my next move,
because i'm sick of getting nowhere,
and i don't feel you care,
about what i have to do,
but do you give a d@mn?
do you care i'm looking for a reason out?
i may say suicide is never the answer,
but, if it means i don't have to put up with this $h! t,
than let me be,
can't i be free?
i may break alot of hearts,
and i know i'll be my fault,
but, getting rid of this pain,
is where i'm at,
i had enough,
i just want it to end,
but, how?
i'm tiried of working through,
when i don't get far,
money makes people greedy,
would it still be more special,
than my life?
you let me know,
when i am no longer here.

Life's Not Always Fair
Life is the thing that all people have the right to,
But not all people have it the way they want it.
People take life for granted,
There's suicide, and homicide, People killing other people.
One thing I have learned is...
Life's not always fair, So deal with it.
Some people live and some people die,
Death is not always the answer.
The angels come down,
They take you away,
To what you think is the better place to be,
But you miss them...Family, friends, and being THERE!
You never realize what you have until it's gone,
Once it's gone then you realize what has really happened.
You cry and cry, You want to DIE!
People need to realize that, Life's not always fair
Don't die! Live life to the fullest!
And you will see, It can only get better.
No matter how bad things look,
Just realize one thing...LIFE'S NOT ALWAYS FAIR!

Old Friends
who would of thought?
it be you i see,
the one i remember,
when we went to school,
an old friend an old pal,
oh, yeah...
thoughs was the good days,
when i was myself,
and nothing more,
now, i just can't seem to find,
that girl i once knew,
everything changed so fast,
don't know what had happened,
i just remember the good times we had,
when i thought i was to good for you,
when in reality,
you were the one who treat me right,
you were the one who feeling was real,
but, i thought i could do better,
how wrong was i?
i played with your heart,
i got the same in return,
life can be cruel,
but, i guess i deserved,
because of what i've done to you.

I May Not Know
I may not know dear Lord, but you, know the things I’m going through,
You know the beginning and the end, and I know that you’re my friend.
Your plan for me is whatever’s best, through every trial and every test,
And I may not know the reason why, but, your love for me I can’t deny.
Your plan also includes prosperity, on a winding path towards eternity,
And though, at times, I sense alarm, your plan for me intends no harm.
Rather, in you I’m protected from, the dangers of life when they come,
And from you I receive total peace, when life’s tribulations do increase.
It’s during times I don’t understand; I remember my life is in your hand,
While your will is done in my life, for my Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.
At times this may affect my family, through ways that I have yet to see,
As you mold and shape their ways, for your eventual Glory and Praise.
When I go down a daily to do list, I know that my life is but just a mist,
Appearing on earth for just a time, as I’m shaped for an eternal design.
Within your plan, you let me know, you are with me wherever I may go,
As my Rock and strength through all, holding me up, lest I should fall.
It is not for me to know what’s ahead, lest I would be filled with dread,
But to know where strength is from, as more trials are bound to come,
And within your plan, I have hope, with your strength to help me cope,
Knowing I have a Heavenly Home, to live forever as Christ’s very own.
