My life just wasn’t working
everything was bad
it might have been the booze
or the stuff that kept me sad
all I knew that moment
was the trigger and the gun
just one bullet neatly placed
and I’d leave this “House O’Fun”
the silence was unending
the moment went too fast
when I pulled the trigger
my pain would end at last
the noise cut through the silence
the bullet through my head
and within just an instant
I realized I was dead
I could see my body
my skin a whitish grey
and I knew no one would see me smile
not another day
and though I had no tears
I could feel them yet
I knew that what I did
I always would regret
So hold on to your life, my friend
Hold it very dear
Or you will end up just like me
A lost soul trapped in despair.
