Choose Life
You wanted to die
You wanted to fly
Away from the pain
Away from this life
You couldn’t eat
You couldn’t sleep
They thought it a phase
They thought it would cease
There’s another way you’ll see
To end this life of misery
Ask for help and you will find
Ways to change your thoughts and mind
If your sad today take heart
It’s just a thought that will depart
Thoughts they come and go you know
Pay no heed and let them go (away)
You wanted to die
You wanted to fly
Away from the pain
Away from this life
You couldn’t eat
You couldn’t sleep
They thought it a phase
They thought it would cease
It’s now too late to tell you
You gave up on life too soon
You had so much to live for
But all this you did ignore
You forgot all the beauty
That is yours for all eternity
You didn’t know that peace
Can be had on a long lease
You wanted to die
You wanted to fly
Away from the pain
Away from this life
You couldn’t eat
You couldn’t sleep
They thought it a phase
They thought it would cease
Choose life
And end this fight
Choose life it’ll be alright
It’ll be alright
Choose life
And end this fight
Choose life it’ll be alright
It’ll be alright
Change your mind
And you will find
A reason to live
A reason to shine
Love yourself
And everyone else
See the dark fade
Have wisdom have wealth
