Another Way
She sits there wondering what went wrong,
With the life she used to love
Should she feel the guilt she has
Or should she put it in the past
Do they realize what they’ve done,
To a girl who loved the sun
Now she doesn’t know what to do
And she doesn’t know if she can make it through
Now she sits scared and alone,
Wondering where her life’s gonna go and
She often wonders if it’s worth the wait
To see if the pain’ll go away
Or should she just end it now
And use the gun she found
To end all her misery
Her parents used to be in love
And always had so much fun
But now things have completely changed
And nothings ever gonna be the same
And she’s so scared to know
Which direction her life’ll go
Will it follow in their footsteps,
Or will she break the never-ending chain
She wants to have kids
If she makes it that far
She still wonders if she should end now
And use the gun she found
To end all her misery
Call her crazy
For thinking about it
But how can someone else
Be the judge about her life
Suicide seems right to her
But if only she could see
The life she has yet to live
And if only she could see
That suicide is a permanent solution to her temporary problem
Things will get better
There is always light at the end
No matter how dark the tunnel seems
There is always a way
To take away the misery
Without using
The gun she found.
