I understand you are being pushed to the brink
But I implore you stop put down your blade and think.
I'm sure you'll see in doing this there is nothing to gain
If you'll just think past the heartache and pain
You'll see that instead of pulling you from the brink
Your blade is actually what is causing you to sink.
Sink past reality
Making your life a formality
That becomes a tragedy
Ending in fatality.
