Saved, but lost

{Trigger: Suicide attempt}

His world was destroyed,

Phil's right on the edge.

I tried to save him,

Up upon the cold stone ledge.

He wanted it to end,

His life and the pain.

I tried to save him

When he sliced through his veins.

Our love for each other,

Was keeping him here.

But lingering in his mind:

'Dumb, ugly queer.'

Phil stood on the ledge,

Nothing left of the day.

"Phil, don't go. I love you...

More than words can say."

He turned around,

His glassy eyes...

"Dan... I don't wanna,

Say my goodbyes..."

Towards me he walked,

Inside he came.

But Phil my lover,

Won't be the same...

I saved him.

But I lost him.

His grip on life,

Appearing so slim.
