It pains my soul
When one takes their life
A perminent solution
To their struggles and strife

They have no answers
Have no hope
To ease their pain
And be able to cope

Like the rest of us
Who struggle along
We're not unique
Or especially strong

We just do the best
We can day to day
Believing our problems
Will soon go away

So when one kills themselves
Who's to blame
I think everybody
Cause we're all much the same

We need to look out
For those who hurt
Listen more
And be more alert

Open your hearts
Open your ears
To those you know
And treat them dear

For suicide is serious
Beyond recourse
Yet afterward
There's so much remorse
