"Don't die with your music still inside of you," Dr Wayne Dyer


I'm OK, he smiles, just another lie
He decides to say just one last good bye
They never knew how he hurt inside,
But they can't ask cause he has already died

Blood that has fallen, blood that has fallen
Dropped to the ground
It's society's mistake, society's mistake
That not much love can be found

Mirror, mirror on the stained wall
Who decides just how pretty we all are
They never knew how she hurt inside
But they can't ask cause she has already died

Blood that has fallen, blood that has fallen
Dropped to the ground
It's society's mistake, society's mistake
That not much love can be found

Magazines, TV
Or maybe another punch to the gut
Tossing, can't sleep
Is this what causes all the cuts
Darling, Don't scream
Or they will hear your wounded cries
Happy, Not me
Maybe I won't wake up I will die
I will die

Blood that has fallen, blood that has fallen
Dropped to the ground
It's society's mistake, society's mistake
That not much love can be found

I'm ok, we smile,
How many just lie?

This piece is a call for awareness. Today's society pressures many teens into various different things. Suicide rates are higher than ever. I hope that by reading these lyrics people will be forced to acknowledge these problems and their effects on teens everywhere.
