lyrics

Suicide who knew that losing your sight you would find
Another reason in the whites of your eyes to survive
In your mind it was a suitable sign
But let's not think about it

Do it right for it's a matter of time 'til you find
Another method to unravel the line of your life
But it's fine we'll write it off as a crime
And never talk about it

Suicide but then I don't know if I know it's right
To feel embarrassed when the night brought your arms to the knife
And decide to tell a beautiful lie
But let's not think about it

I know I don't want to go
I've had these hands at my throat
Come bring me down from the rope
And don't let me go

You and I we've had our troubles to chide and deride
In contemplation of an end to the feeling inside
But it's not over 'til it's over and I
Don't want to hear about it

Suicide but I admit I was blind when you tried
To find another person willing to hide and confide
Your design of air your body deprive
So yeah I knew about it

I'm not alive I'm a ghost
I'm dead inside I'm alone
I'll write goodbye in my note
The one that you wrote

I know that I'll be alright
It's not your problem it's mine
It's like I already died
In social suicide

I survived and though I'm doing alright I still try
And wonder why I never made it in time to your side
To do right tell you it wasn't your time
But I don't think about it
