Brighter Days

You've got one foot in the grave You're one step from the edge I'm searching for the words to say To get you out of your head I know that you're not okay But this will only make it worse We all know what the poets say Pain only ends when you're dead I don't think it's got to be that way I think there's brighter days ahead I know life's not okay It aches beyond any words But my friend this will only make it worse And sleep's a nice alternative to suicide Why don't you step back from that ledge and come inside You can forget all of their words Forget all their faces Cause' there are some choices you can never take back It's easy to throw away A life riddled with cuts and scars There's something still left to save It's at the core of who you are So push on to the brighter days You don't know what you're worth Oh my friend you don't know what you're worth And sleep's a nice alternative to suicide Why don't you step back from that ledge and come inside You can forget all of their words Forget all their faces Cause' there are some choices you can never take back You've got one foot in the grave You're one step from the edge And I know what the poets say This pain will end when you're dead And I'm sure it really feels that way But I hope you listen to me instead There's brighter days ahead And sleep's a nice alternative to suicide Why don't you step back from that ledge and come inside You can forget all of their words Forget all their faces Cause' there are some choices you can never take back
