Early morning texts are a little mental

I understand you're struggling in your physical

Life will always shift the ride through obstacles

You're not the only one to ride the bull


You say you're tired you're thinking of dying

And lately you spend your nights crying

Saying life is too hard and unsatisfying

Spending your years you're tired of fighting


So when the lights go out what then

And your body's left for me to bury

Another suicide another senseless end

What do I tell my children then


When fire and ice collide it's where we meet

Your shadows try to chill my bones in your defeat

Before the blood flow of your river stains my feet

This time your waters won't pull me down beneath

I won't drown with you but I'll hold you up

Above the waters long enough

Until you can swim back to shore

Hold on just a little more


You say no one will know your gone

I tell you that's where you got it all wrong

Suicide death is a lingering song

That haunts even the strongest of strong


The broken remain broken you say

Where you are it storms everyday

But we've all felt the storms come our way

Leave us debris and the stinch of decay


So when the lights go out what then

And your body's left for me to bury

Another suicide another senseless end

What do I tell my children then


When fire and ice collide it's where we meet

Your shadows try to chill my bones in your defeat

Before the blood flow of your river stains my feet

This time your waters won't pull me down beneath

I won't drown with you but I'll hold you up

Above the waters long enough

Until you can swim back to shore

Hold on just a little more


Oh the haunting of your words continue

It's like you're begging me to save you

But no one can save you but you

No one can steer the bull but you


So when the lights go out what then

And your body's left for me to bury

Another suicide another senseless end

What do I tell my children then


When fire and ice collide it's where we meet

Your shadows try to chill my bones in your defeat

Before the blood flow of your river stains my feet

This time your waters won't pull me down beneath

I won't drown with you but I'll hold you up

Above the waters long enough

Until you can swim back to shore

Hold on just a little more


So keep the lights on tonight

Hold on just a little more

Welcome in the daylight

Hold on just a little more

Soon it's gonna be alright
