I wish I had a time machine, one to go back to 2003

A little boy was born that year, and his life would be full of fear

He was confused

He was so bruised

He was just struggling

Wanted to end his suffering

I remember that little kid crying his eyes out he wanted to quit

What was the fucking point of life when he only ever felt like dying?

I wish I had a time machine, one to see that curly-haired teen

He was always questioning everything, but never actually living

He was depressed

He was so stressed

He almost killed me

I just want to tell him that everything isn't so bad

I just want to grab him by his shoulders, look him in the eyes and say

You think no one cares at all

You think there's no reason to go on

You're crying in a bathroom stall, because you're planning to end it all

I just want to grab you by your shoulders, look you in your eyes and say

That you made it

You made it

You made it

I just want to tell you that you made it somehow

You're not gonna stop now

All of that excruciating pain was just inside your parasitic brain

Everything will be okay, you will make it through this day

If I'm going to be honest, you can do it, I promise

I promise
