Can'T Leave It Behind

Not thinking twice Feeling like she is in the hands of a vice This terrible bind Not caring all that she may leave behind Doesn't know what to do Feeling like your all she can hold on to She doesn't know what to feel Nothing ever seems to feel real That pain is just to much to bear She hides herself behind a veil Her strife feels so long No where does she belong She holds the blade it's in her grip A flood of memories as she is about to slip All the good things in her life Brought straight into the light The people who she forgot to tell goodbye She's on the edge and about to cry Brings the knife to her skin But let's it fall and lights go dim Crying hard and feeling bad She knows all her friends would have been so sad She can't do it she never would She couldn't imagine what would have happened if she could She spared her life because of what was right In that deciding moment she saw the light So her life it did not end It was just about to turn around and begin
