Pull Me Out
My heart is beating fast.
Look at me, I may not last.
My mother says I am fine.
But she is another puppet in the line.
My father gives me a smile,
it will be okay. But that stretch is a mile.
My friends, they make me laugh,
and I know it is on my behalf.
My boyfriend, he holds me tight,
I hope to god it is all night.
Please pick me up, I need it.
My world, how she needs to be lit.
Don't take me down at all,
that is, unless you want to see me fall.
I hold onto my hope,
but I'm not the freaking pope!
So Honey, stay happy,
I promise if you try, it'll be snappy.
Now I'm standing at the edge.
My life comes to a hold, a wedge.
I see it flash as I hit the water,
it is cold, the movie was like a slaughter.
But then I see them, the ones that cared,
My parents, boyfriend, friends, all there!
I realize something, I'm not ready to die.
Pull me out, please, the water is hurting my eyes!
Then it goes blank, I'm left in thought,
Then I open my eyes, I see all the flowers brought.
The bed is warm, but my veins are still cold,
I see my loved ones, young and old.
And now I know, what I am worth,
for I am living the rest of my life on this earth.
Don't let people or things get to you,
I learned that the hard way when I almost went blue.
