One Less

Such a desperate act performed
To free youself from an unricheous world.
You don't even know how selfish you've become.
You don't hurt yourself.
You hurt the ones who care.

But look at you,
Just another teenage statistic.

~Chorus~
Don't do it,
Not yet.
Wait for someone to save your life.
He will come.
He'll set your mind straight.

Put down the gun.
Find something to believe in.
Don't take away an innocent life.
You can be saved
By the ones who care.

But look at you,
Just another teenage statistic

~Chorus~

Don't do it,
Not Yet.
Wait for someone to save your life.
He will come.
He'll set your mind straight.

And look at you now.
You still bare the scars,
But you changed the statistics.
One less innocent dies today.

~Chorus~
Don't do it,
Not yet.
Wait for someone to save your life.
He will come.
He'll set you mind straight.

Author notes

This is about someone thinking about suicide. If any of you are. Please listen to me. It is a selfish, childish and cruel act. There are other ways to free yourself from this world like writing. Find something to believe. Find something to fight for. Don't take the easy way out. The video above this song has Lacey Mosley of Flyleaf telling a story of a girl who tried to commit suicide. Please listen to it.
