Death is never the way out
Death can never paint over drawn lines
It can never repair torn pictures
Or save you from even yourself
Dear friend I understand your pain
I understand the blood that runs down your arm
The drawings on your wrists show all your stories
I’ve traced them myself
I understand your tears that hit the floor
The tears that shatter the coloured windows
The tears that shatter the silence
Your tears that have broken my heart
And the hearts of all those who love you
Those who love you, there are many I can assure
Those who love you want you to believe
That no substance can hide the pain
No substance will save you from the truth
No substance will take from reality
Reality that shows on your skin and scars
Scars that are fragile, but in time can heal
As long you love and have faith in those who love you
Have faith in God that loves you
More than any pill or needle with love you
More than any knife or glass can cut you
In time you will realize that you are beautiful
Inside and out, beauty comes through pain and suffering
A rose comes through it’s thorns, and blesses those
Who care for it
As I pray for you to see your own beauty
Pray for you to see
Pray for you to believe
That death is never the way out
