Story behind the song
I wrote this song after hearing about a teenager trying to slit his wrists in his high school parking lot. This song is about the reality of suicide and depression. I made it a point to say in the song that we will go when He wants us to go. We aren't the ones to decide. At times it can be tough, but it is worth it in the end.
Lyrics
Keep this note next to your jelewery box, And grip it tight whenever you feel lost, It might not be your favorite thing, But its still something, its still something I'm sorry that you had to hear it this way, You had a choice it's sad to say, I hate to put this all on you, But wouldn't you, wouldn't you? Say goodbye its time to go my friend Until we meet again (2x) And now all that I have learned from you That to myself I haven't been true, And all the hope that you would bring Now it means nothing, it means nothing With every word that I scraped in lead I prayed to God that I was dead, My prayers were heard but He did nothing Now isn't that something, isn't that something Say goodbye its time to go my friend Until we meet again (2x) Now say goodbye
