Suicide (For Grant)

He wakes up in the morning wishing he could just rewind
and go back to when he first laid his head down at night
For in his dreams he can be whatever it is he wants
A baseball player, a rockstar, or even an astronaut,
but that's not what he wants, to him those dreams are dead
He justs wants a break from the suicide in his head

He goes through his day doing just what he's supposed to do
but he does it with an "I don't care" type of attitude
Everyone around him thinks he's just another fucked up kid
They don't take the time to realize he doesn't care if he lives

In his free time he likes to sit and watch the rain
He's trapped inside a twenty-four hour lockdown filled with pain
Faces, feelings, and memories all become an endless blur
One day his brain will just shut down and he'll disappear from the world

He needs someone to save him but they're to busy with a mirror
He falls through the cracks of the world that doesn't know he's here
As he painfully drifts away others simply watch, and it's a sin
That the world will miss out on the man he could have been

Then one day he ends his pain doing the only thing he thought to do
And the worst part of it all is that the world never even knew
