Please don't take the easy way out. It's not easy for anyone else.

lyrics

Black, black day. Blue, blue night.
They always told you stay away from the light.
Now in your secret place where thoughts freely flow.
Isn't the light a place where trees choose to grow?
It might be a beautiful place where we can all go.
It might be a beautiful place where we can all go.

Having some final thoughts out by your porch swing.
It was supposed to be a wonderful spring.
Thinking about last fall you still had a friend.
But now for you the winter will never end.
But now for you the winter will never end.

White, white pill. Red, red wine.
A couple hours from now and you're feeling fine.
The bullies and tormentors will be far away.
No more crying all night and sleeping all day.
There might be a beautiful place where we can all play.
There might be a beautiful place where we can all play.

Now time is running down; you're starting to drool.
I guess you really showed those bullies at school.
I hope the light has what you couldn't find here.
A peace and comfort and a world without fear.
A peace and comfort and a world without fear.
