Hold a straight edge against my forearm

...Can't do it...

Can't get the courage to even trace a line around my arm

Empty out a handful of sleeping pills and pour a glass of water

...Can't do it...

Can't get the courage to swallow my pain and sleep soundly

Stand on the edge of a skyscraper watching the world pass me by

...Can't do it...

Can't get the courage to take the final plunge

Put a gun against my forehead finger on the trigger

...Can't do it...

Can't get the courage to blow my brains away

Sitting in the dark

...Do I even want to do it?...

Can't even get the courage to admit that I don't want to die
