SHE NEEDS HELP

It's just another snowy day in January

As she sits in her room alone for hours

She is left alone with nothing but her thoughts

Her mind is a dangerous place to be

Her thoughts swirling all around her

She can’t focus on any just one

So many things that hurt her

SHE NEEDS HELP

But she doesn't know how to ask for it

The suicidal thoughts take over 

It seems like the only option left

The thoughts eat away at her with no end in sight

She feels less and less

Until she doesn’t feel anything

Everything is just numb

SHE NEEDS HELP

She pulls a box out from underneath her bed 

Can you see what's about to happen?

So many pills to many to count 

3...2...1…

Randomly grabbing pills 

Hoping and praying the pain will go away

SHE NEEDS HELP

She wakes up still alive 

But her soul has died along time ago 

She is still alone in her room

The thoughts take over again

What's she supposed to do

SHE NEEDS HELP

Out comes the box again 

Even more pills than last time 

Why wouldn't it work 

Afew weeks pass 

But once again she is left alone

She tries to ignore the thoughts

But it doesn’t work 

More and more pills

SHE NEEDS HELP

Shes so tired

She's lost count

How many times is that now 20, 30

She doesn’t even know anymore

SHE NEEDS HELP

She misses the days when she was just a happy kid

But those days are long gone by now

Now she just feels like a failure 

Nothing is enough for her perfect parents

SHE NEEDS HELP

Her perfect christan parents 

They don’t understand her

Her mother doesn't believe in antidepressants

So she's just left there to suffer

Depression isn’t a choice 

It’s a disease

SHE NEEDS HELP
