Death Below

You hope to die one day 
That'd serve as a fun day
You want to cut your wrists
Or talk about the risks
That the loaded gun brought you

But you are still here alive 
Yes you work a nine to five
To get by, at night you cried
When this world only promised lies

But everyday I'm battling with you
Sadness seems to cloud our minds
Sometimes I dig through gold mines
To reach my soul for another day 

So I hope you reflect on this
Sometimes our actions effect this
You can never bet a wish 
When death is on the list
