Been There

A gunshot to the head A knife to the chest If this is the only way out What happens to the rest Losing your best friend Is no reason to end your life Suicide is not the key So put down that gun or knife Is it that your father Is dying from lung cancer Don't give up now Because only God knows the answer Whatever it may be It's not worth the rest of your life So please for my sake Just put down that knife I may not be your mother Or even your best friend But please atleast take notice To all the love I send You are a great person Inside and out So please let others see What you are all about Trust me when I say I have been there in the past Drop the sorrow Because your dreams have got to last I'm not trying to tell you What to say or what to do I'm just letting you know How much that I love you
