You have enemies? Good. That means you've stood up for something, sometime in your life. (Wintson Churchill)

Give me a reason
To end this life
Give me a reason
To survive

What is the meaning
Of this life
What is the purpose
Of being alive

Breathing slowly
I'm falling away
Breathing gently
I'm starting to sway

Get out of my face
And go, get out
Your lucky to live
Get out of my house

This life is surreal
A mirage of life
This life is just stupid
I'm ending the strife

And I'm gone
