Find Your Way (Lyrics by Me)

Author Note: Hi Everyone.
Well as usual, when I hear about teen suicides, it really effects me.
I got really upset about the gay teen suicides.
It made me reflect on people who've died.
This song is about a friend of mine.
He wasn't gay and neither was his father.
But his father killed himself when we were young and we didn't understand why.
Please leave comments.

[Find Your Way]

And he’s still out there, and I still remember.
How we felt that day, a month later and we got the truth.
You started questioning why and no we’ll never understand but.
I thought we’d make it through hand in hand.
It’s years later I’m so far away but I know you’re out there still.
Thank god for that, thank god for that.

I hope someone is listening now I know they weren’t back then.
You picked up a filthy habit and we understand it is not the end.
I waited so long I’m still holding on even if I’m not there.
All you said was you were angry, you didn’t understand why he.
And I get it and I don’t understand it either but we’re still living.

I guess that’s what we call it, you’re still angry get it I get it.
You need to say something, get it all out and let it change you.
They don’t ever listen, they can’t hear you screaming for answers to the questions.
They don’t care for feelings like we do, they just want to be numb.
And I guess I understand that it’s easier to hide the fact than to face the truth.
But you’re not alone, you’ve never been but it took too long for me.

I didn’t give up that easily but I can’t wait around for you to talk to me.
After everything I wish we talked, even if you hurt me I still want to.
Set you free because none of what he did was your fault, I understand how.
You think he didn’t care but I try to tell you that it’s hard to think of anyone or anything else.
Do you think he’d want this for you?
I know you don’t think you owe him anything but I think you do.
He gave the best years of his life to you.

He worried about you, always wanted to be the best man you could be.
If he were here today what we he see?
I didn’t give up I moved away and now I’m out of luck, I guess.
I hope someone comes along and saves you from your becoming.
I tried to tell you and understandably you tried to push me aside.
You know the answers, I know you’ve been there but you just to don’t want to see it.

But you’re still alive, I thank god for that.
I thank god for that, even if you still don’t understand.
I hope that you get help, get out of that town.
I hope that one day face the truth and stop lying to yourself.
I know he loved you no matter what you think.
But you’re still alive and I thank god for that.
If it’s the only thing I believe in him for I thank god for that.

And I miss you wherever you are, I know you’ll get out of this hole one day.
I know you’ll find your road, you’ll find your way.
