Hold me just a little longer
Let me linger here
Hold me just a little longer
I know the end is near.
Remember me forever
Even though I’m here no more
Remember me forever
Even if your heart is sore.
Keep me living in your memory
Even if it hurts
Keep me living in your memory
And in your loss of words.
Keep me crying from the heavens
Through the sorrow and the pain
Keep me crying from the heavens
Falling down like rain.
Hold me just a little longer
Show me that you care
Hold me just a little longer
For the times that I was there.
Remember all the laughter
And all of the good times
Remember all the laughter
And thoughts of any kind.
Keep me living all the moments
Over in my head
Keep me living all the moments
Even though I’m dead.
Keep me crying in the darkness
In the corner all alone
Keep me crying in the darkness
It’s hard when no one’s home.
Hold me just a little longer
Do you remember me?
Hold me just a little longer
I’ve so much yet to see!
Remember when you saved me?
I’m sorry—I was scared.
Remember when you saved me?
I didn’t know you cared.
Keep me loving you
Even after death
Keep me loving you
In my last and final breath.
Keep me safe inside your heart
And inside your mind.
Keep me safe inside your heart
Please don’t leave me behind.
Hold me just a little longer
I want to know the end
Hold me just a little longer
And say that you’re my friend.
Hold me just a little longer
The story isn’t done
Hold me just a little longer
Death has not yet won.
Hold me just a little longer
I think I want to stay
Hold me just a little longer
I’ve so much yet to say.
Remember how you saved me
Time and time again
Remember how you saved me
I knew I couldn’t win.
Keep sticking by me
I know that you are true
Keep sticking by me
You know I’ll love you too.
Keep holding on to me
Just for a moment longer
Keep holding on to me
You only make me stronger.
Hold me for eternity
I know that its your plan
Hold me for eternity
Forever if you can.
Hold me but a minute
And you will change my life
Hold me but a minute
And wash away my strife.
Such power you hold over me
You always seem to heal
Such power you hold over me
I’m not sure this is real.
Love me for forever
You know that I’ll love you
Love me for forever
I can save you too.
As I lay in this pool of blood
And watch my life slowly slip away,
I remember what you said the day before;
I remember everything about yesterday.
My life was nothing more to you,
than just a silly little game.
Why should I get the chance to live
Without a life of pain?
Are you happy now that I will die,
Or will you feel bad about what youve done?
For now this is goodbye,
For now, you have won.
But when you start to realize,
What youve made me do
Maybe youll start to think like me
Maybe youll find something you never knew.
Maybe youll feel bad about it,
Maybe youll even cry
Have you ever felt like me?
Have you ever wanted to die?
fire burn my body
fire burn my soul
fire break me down
fire make me whole
please keep them from coming
and opening the door
do not let them find me
until i lay dead upon the floor.
do not let them stop me
as i write my final song
please just make them wait,
wait until im gone.
fire dont expose me
fire hide the truth
fire keep from them
the things they never knew.
fire hide my secrets
fire rid me of my pain
fire burn the players
fire burn the game.
fire take my sanity
fire take my life
fire burn the rules
with which i cant comply.
fire burn the teacher
fire burn the school
fire burn the horrible things
people think are cool.
fire burn the stereotypes
and make the people see
the only person worth being
is who you're born to be.
fire stop them from laughing,
fire make them stop.
fire make them see
a poser's what im not.
fire give me courage,
courage enough to die
fire keep them asking
keep them asking why.
fire expose nothing
fire make me blind
fire help me leave,
leave the world behind.
Deep inside the city
In a house a few years old,
Lies a broken little girl,
Her spirit lost and cold.
The thick wall of ice
That surrounds her frozen heart
Cannot be broken down,
It cannot be torn apart.
But somehow she can smile
And pretend that shes okay
No one would ever guess
That shed take her life away.
As she walks home from school
All she thinks about is death,
She doesnt want to live anymore,
She wants to take her final breath.
As she reaches for the notebook
To write down her last words
An angel is screaming,
Her voice broken and unheard.
As she opens up the cabinet,
To grab the box of pills,
The angel tries to stop her,
But she cant change the young girls will.
As she swallows the last capsule,
The one thats sure to make her die,
She thinks of all her family
And says her last goodbye.
As the sun shines through the window,
The birds singing in the trees
Her mother silently wonders
Where her daughter could be.
Thats when she finds the notebook
With her daughters final words,
She hears the angel screaming,
The voice her daughter never heard.
As she rushes to the bathroom
Her eyes searching the floor
She realizes her daughter
Would have thought of this before.
As she runs to her daughters room,
She finds her daughter tucked in bed,
But her daughter isnt sleeping,
Her daughter is now dead.
If you ever feel like dying
Remember these last words,
An angel will be screaming
So make her voice be heard.
my hands they shake as I write this
it’s too hard to write the words
too many things I have to say
that you have never heard
I’m going to talk to someone
you needn’t worry more
someone’s going to listen
and help me with my sores
I just hope that she won’t judge me
and she will keep an open mind
I’m afraid of what I may tell her
I’m afraid of what she may find
I’m sorry I never told you
I didn’t want you to know
how long I’ve suffered
how I’ve longed to let go
I’m sorry I tell you too late
but I didn’t want you to interfere
you’ll see it in a minute
I tell you now, while I’m not here
my life’s just kind of crazy
and actually kind of sad
I always was a good kid
always happy with what I had
but I guess something happened
that changed that little girl
she has broken down and run
to the safety of her own world
now only I linger here
a fragment of what’s left
the broken pieces of her heart
in a box, they’re kept
she has created me
to hide from what she fears
so she doesn’t have to know
she’s drowning in her tears
so many things have broken her
and now there’s nothing left to break
so many things have been stolen from her
but there’s nothing left to take
I’m sorry that you couldn’t meet her
and that you have to know me
for I am only half
of what she used to be
I am only part
of who she was so long ago
I am only part
but the other part won’t show
long ago, I buried her
I thought that she had died
but she just sits alone
hidden deep inside
everyday, a tear she cries
because no one really cares
everyday, blood she takes
because no one’s really there
everyday she tries to end it
but she’s not strong enough
she’s losing every battle
even death is too tough
she is chained to this life
that she doesn’t want to live
she has given everything
that she didn’t want to give
so for all of you that read this
I’m sorry to explain
that all these words are true
and no longer mask the pain
so now you see what she hid
what she kept on her own
she tried to run away
but she couldn’t leave her home
and now the girl I thought was dead
is crying once again
and even when I comfort her
the pain just settles in
so all the progress I had made
to keep her from her death
is stalled and moving backwards
she’s taking her last breath
for all of those that knew me
and those that thought they did
I’m sorry for what I’ve done
and I’m sorry for what I hid
I’m especially sorry to those I told
I shouldn’t have burdened you down
I should have let you believe
that my smile wasn’t a frown
I should have let you believe
that I didn’t live behind a mask
and then the questions
wouldn’t need to be asked
so when I’m finally gone
really, please don’t grieve
because, I promise you
I’ve been waiting to leave
I know I was ready to talk
and I promise that I tried
but too many things have happened
I’m not worthy of a life
to those that tried to help me
I know you did your best
and I thank you for your efforts
but I really need to rest
don’t worry–I’ve a bed made
in the ground and in the dirt
exactly where I belong
buried with the hurt
to those that tried to stop me
I’m sorry; you’re too late
I’m sorry that I blew off plans
but I made another date
a date with death to end my life
and end the sorrow now
a date that I could not avoid
that’s something that I found
I know that you will read this
and then you will ask why
so before I kill myself
I’ll shows the tears I cried
I’ll write my memories in a journal
for all of you to read
and then when you’re done learning
you can finally see
how painful it was to live like that
always running from the pain
trying to hide my tears
while dancing in the rain
so I’m sorry if I hurt you
it wasn’t my intention
I’m sorry that I’ve deceived you
but I can’t stand my reflection
I’m sorry if you worry
and I’m sorry if you cry
I’m sorry that I was weak
and only wanted to die
I’m sorry I couldn’t hold on
long enough to explain
too much sorrow, too much strife
nothing left to gain
only death I wanted
I cared for nothing else
and even when you tried
I didn’t let you help
so if you think that you’re to blame
I’ll say this to the wind
so that it carries through to you
it will find it’s way in
I caused this to happen to me
the rape, the pain, the hate
I bottled everything inside
what other choice could I make?
Now I see that I’m to blame
and for this I must pay
so when you want to talk to me
I won’t have much to say
I’m sorry that I’ve left you
but remember, I’m still here
when you need a friend, you know
I am always near
as long as you remember me
I can never leave
I will be safe, away from life
but still your pains I see
I will be the angel
that helps you from above
because you tried to help me
you tried to show me love
so remember if you feel like me
don’t you dare try to take your life
I will help you through
the sorrow and the strife
I know that I’m a hypocrite
for what I have just said
but this doesn’t bother me
I don’t want you dead
I don’t want you to join me
trapped forever in this place
I don’t want you to be like this
I can’t even look you in the face
so I’ll say goodbye and finish this
so I can rest in peace
so goodbye, my loves, sleep tonight
I’m finding my release.
