Tears On the Wind
Her life was getting too complex
As she is feeling more perplexed
Holding that sharp razor blade
A tough decision must be made
If she should just start forgetting
The lonely life she had been living
Trying to pull far away
From her past to live another day
Or take the easy way out
Cutting veins until blood spouts
Like rain when it begins to pour
And she lays lifeless on the floor
With the blade in her shaking hand
She tries so hard to understand
Why she made the wrong decision
Putting her in this situation
Her mind starts racing to the time
She put her whole life on the line
By saying no like she was taught
Not letting herself get so caught
And trapped with such bad influence
Knowing she just blew the chance
To walk away and not do dope
And live a life of dreams and hope
She knows this chance might now be gone
And the risk of hanging on
Is her decision now to make
She’s confused which road to take
She has no more strength to fight
Until she sees a brilliant light
Shining down on her so bright
With a voice so soft and low
Saying it’s not time to go
