Feeling lost at school and feeling ignored at home
Surrounded by people but feeling all alone
I think I’m tired of fighting the fight
I’m ready to leave this life tonight
There’s nothing here as far as I can see
I wonder if anyone will even miss me
Meanwhile two blocks away
Stacy winds up another day
She remembers him and when they were so close
But lately he seems distant, disappeared like a ghost
I’ll call him tomorrow to just say hi
She doesn’t know he’s ending his life tonight
Meanwhile two rooms away his parents talk
About how they might go take a walk
Should they go back to his room
They joke how it seems like a tomb
They remember how he laughed not long ago
Would they have tried harder if they had known?
Meanwhile two key strokes away
More of the kids in school type away
Making jokes and calling him names
Doesn’t he know he’s so lame
They wish he would go away and die
Tomorrow they will cry and wonder why
He thinks of how his life will end
Too many torn pieces to try to mend
His phone rings “hey how are you doing”
It’s Stacy asking how things are going
I was going to call you tomorrow but why wait
She didn’t know that tomorrow would’ve been one day too late
A knock on his door and mom says let’s leave
We are all going to go get some ice cream
No ifs ands or buts, you’re going
If they only knew what he thought of doing
His screen beeps and Scott starts to fight
What you guys say is wrong, it isn’t right
How about saying something positive
And he starts to think he might want to live
He gets off his bed and starts to head out the door
That’s when his bible fell onto the floor
A verse about you will have pain, suffering and sorrow
Then the Air1 verse of the day says hope in tomorrow
Then his youth pastor sent a text to see if he was okay
He sent back looks like I’ll make it through another day
Is there someone that you know
That thinks the sun won’t come up tomorrow
