Hope Is On The Way

This hurts so much, I want to cry
A good friend of mine has died
I don’t know when, I don’t know how
I just know that I want her back now
I didn’t know she was in so much pain
I just want her back again
Maybe if she knew all her friends would cry,
She would’ve thought twice, and stayed alive
But she killed herself
Despite the fact we cared
Despite the fact that we would’ve helped
Maybe I could have helped her, I don’t know
But my pain is starting to show
The day before, I wanted to commit suicide myself
But now I see and feel the pain, I tell you all
Get help
Do it for your family
Do it for your friends
Do it for yourself
Just don’t do it alone
Get help now
You can call someone on the phone
It’s a start
Just don’t break our hearts
Even if you don’t get help today,
I can tell you all, hope is on the way
