By the time you're reading this I'll already be gone
Sadly this is not a poem
Sadly this is not a love song
It's a gun to my head
It's my story ready to end
It's a trip to the beach
Swimming with the sharks
Getting eaten in the dark
A final cry screaming out to you goodbye
The stars are calling
And I'm crying
This will be the last time
Funny how they say this is the cowards way
Funny how they think it's easy
They'll do the same
They'll contemplate and I know
But they're not brave
But they'll remember me and realize why I couldn't stay
But you know
That's why I'm telling you
To see if you could learn from my mistakes
To see if I can rescue you
You're strong enough to do both but smart enough to stay where you are
Live on
Be strong
Be the one to prove to me that I'm wrong
But for me it's too late
I've made my mistakes
And it is all coming to an end
This is my final goodbye
