[Verse 1]
DJust an average gCirl She always wore a smDile
She was cheerful and happy for a short Fwhile
Now she's oAlder, things are getting coBmlder
Life's not what she thought, she wishes someone had told her
[Verse 2]
DShe told you she was Cdown, you let it Dslip by
So from then on she kept it on the inside
FShe told herself sAhe was alright
But she was teBmlling white lies Can't you tell? Look at her dull eyes
[Verse 3]
TrDied to stop hCerself from crying almost Devery night
But she knew there was no chance of feeling alrightF
summer came, all she wore was Along sleeves
'cause those cuBmts on her wrists were bleeding through you see
[Verse 4]
DShe knew she was depreCssed, didn't want toD admit it
Didn't think she fit in, everyone seemed to miss it
She carried on like a sAoldier with a baBmttle wound,
Bleeding out from every cut her body consumed
[Verse 5]
DShe had no friends atC school, all alone sDhe sat
And if someone were to notice she would blame the Fcat
But those cuts on her wArist they were nBmo mistake,
But no one cared enough to save hBmer from this self hate
[Verse 6]
TDhings were goingC down never really up, D
And here she is now stuck in this stupid rutF
She knew exactly what sAhe had to do nexBmt,
Just stand on the chair and tie the rope around her neck
[Verse 7]
SDhe wrote a letteCr with her hands shaking wild,
"LooBmk at me now are you proud of your precious cFhild?"
But she knew that her pAarents weren't the ones to blame, Bm
It was the world that should bow down it's head in shame
[Verse 8]
SDhe stood up on tChe chair and looked out at theD moon,
Just don't think Bmit'll all be over soon F
ThBme chair fell down as she took her final breath,
It's all over all gone, now she's greeting death
[Verse 9]
HDer mum walks in,C she falls down to the fDloor,
And now notBmhing can take back what she jFust saw
The little girl that shAe raised is just hanginBmg there,
Her body's pale and her face is violently bare,
[Verse 10]
SDhe sees the noteC and unfolds it with Dcare,
All she does is sBmtare, "How can this be fair?"F
She starts reading as tAhe tears roll doBmwn her face,
"I'm sorry Mum, but this world is just not my place,
[Verse 11]
ID've tried for soC long to fix this and fiDt in,
I've come to realBmise this world's full of sin,F
There's nothing for me Ahere, I'm just aBm waste of space,
p
I've got no reason to stay here with this awful race,
[Verse 12]
IDt's a disgrace, CI was misplaced,
Born in the wrong timBme and in the wrong place,
It's ok though, 'cause Ayou'll see me soBmon,
You'D know when your time has come, just look at the moon,
[Verse 13]
DAs it shines brigCht, throughout the Dnight,
And remember everBmyone's facing their own fighFts,
But i can't deal with tAhis pain, I'm noBmt a fighter,
You'll make it through the night, just hug your pillow tighter
[Verse 14]
SDo let the worldC know that I died in vaDiin,
Because the wBmorld around me is the oFne to blame,
Nd I know in a year youA'll forget I'm gBmone,
'Cause I'm not really something to be dwelled on,
[Verse 15]
TDmhat's what they uCsed to tell me, all those kiDds d school,
So I'm going by tBmhe law majority rules, F
My preseDnce on this eaArth is not needeBmd any longer,
And if anything I hope this makes you stronger,
[Verse 16]
YDou're the best fCriend that I eveDr had,
Such a shame I haBmd to make you so very sad, F
Just remember that you Ameant everythingBm to me,
And to my heart, you're the only one that held the key,
[Verse 17]
Now it's tiCme to go I'm running Aout of space to write,
And yes I lost myBm fight, but please just hold Fon tight
I'm watching over you fArom the clouds aBmbove,
And sending down the purest and whitest dove,
[Outro]
TDo watch over youC and be my helpful Deye,
So this is it worBmld...Goodbye!"F
