song about suicide and overcoming the thought of it
Lyrics
Ebony thoughts fill the sunless air
Try to bring to life this cold nightmare
These whispering voices in your head
Try to make you wish that you were dead
A knife and pills lie on your shelf
“Go ahead, you coward, destroy yourself”
You take the knife, open your veins
In the blink of an eye, you’re engulfed in flames
What will it take to prevent this fate?
What can be done to stop the next one?
I know it seems like the answer; yeah I’ve been there too.
It would take me forever to list all I’ve been through
But through it all I never gave up the fight
And now I’m seeing things in a different light
There’s a God who loves me, and truly cares
And no matter who deserts me he will always be there
So let’s combat these voices that cause so much pain
And no longer lose the battle to these crimson stains
I will never give up
I will never give up
