Heart starts racing, pounding inside
“Forgot about homework” she lied.
Too many bad thoughts,
In her mind it clots.
“Please don’t look at me!
Can’t you let me be?
No one cares about my petty life,
Every day I live in strife.”
Just like the 14 thousand like her
They battle to find their hope and cure.
Chorus:
Scars lay littering her wrists
Razor clutched in harsh fists
Blood pools in her hand
She waits to end Time’s sand.
Her heart takes so much pain.
Searching for a savior in her vein.
Help to save her pretty soul
To take away the pain is our goal.
She’s one in twelve that takes this torture.
Of that very fact we are sure.
Maybe pills will ease her mind
Happy thoughts she tries to find
No hope for a well future
No doubt they will lose her
Deeper and deeper she will carve
Maybe even let her starve
There is no limit how to go
When she’s gone they will know
She’s of 45% of teens with this dark
On their souls it leaves its mark
Chorus
Scars lay littering her wrists
Razor clutched in harsh fists
Blood pools in her hand
She waits to end Time’s sand.
Her heart takes so much pain.
Searching for a savior in her vein.
Help to save her pretty soul
To take away the pain is our goal.
Diseases like depression need a treatment.
Some people need to take the hint.
She’s met the bottom of every bottle
Heading down hill full throttle.
Drunken cries in the night
Not much longer she can fight.
Getting high to calm herself,
Not worrying about her health.
Five of a hundred have never done so
‘Cuz they are the ones who know
Do as others do and you will die
She doesn’t care she wants the sky.
Help her, help her please.
Anything that will make this ease.
Chorus
Scars lay littering her wrists
Razor clutched in harsh fists
Blood pools in her hand
She waits to end Time’s sand.
Her heart takes so much pain.
Searching for a savior in her vein.
Help to save her pretty soul
To take away the pain is our goal.
Don’t make it worse and call them names.
Every 18 seconds someone ends the game.
