There are demons at my door

Sent by Satan, can't be late

I let them in, and now they dwell

Sixteen
Enough with the blades. Tighten the rope, pull the trigger. I'm gone. Sixteen cuts, a blue neck and a bullet in my head. I'm sixteen and I'm dead.My mother cried
As my soul died
I knew what was coming
Down below I would go
Red lines dancing on my skin
Pain from my neck running to my chin
Time to meet Satan, there is no return
Suicide at sixteen, I didn't learn.
Sixteen cuts, a blue neck and a bullet in my head. I'm sixteen, and I'm dead.Don't be angry
Don't be disappointed
It was my time to leave
I wasn't anointed
With love and with care
And a stupid dare
Took me straight to the coffin
And down to hell
Where my demons dwell
Sixteen cuts, a blue neck and a bullet in my head. I'm sixteen, and I'm dead.May my soul rest in peace
And may you learn from my mistakes
I didn't ask for help
And now its too late
I killed myself
A stupid way out
I had no one to talk to
No voice to shout
I guess I'm better off dead
I was a hazard to society
I had nowhere to run
So I ran to the blade, the rope and the gun
You don't have to
It's not too late
Talk to someone before you have sixteen cuts, a blue neck and a bullet in your head. Get help before you're sixteen and dead.
