By the Big Tree

And so she opens her window
And climbs out
With her knife and rope

She heads for the one happy place
In her life

The park is closed
But she could care a less

She walks right in
Finds the big tree in the center of the park
Where all her happiest memories are

But those are only memories now
She no longer feels the happiness
That once filled her whole life

All she has knows now is the pain
And her rope and knife

And so she climbs the tree
And ties the rope to the tree

A movement makes her look up
Hundrends of people are surrounding her

They all have the same knife and rope

They stop at the tree and stare up at her

She stares at them, too

A girl comes forward
She's seen her in school
And is in most of her classes
But neither bothered to say hi

The girl opens her mouth to speak
"You're not alone
There is more to this I know
You can make it out
You will live to tell"

And so she cuts the rope
And climbs done the tree
To be joined by the people that are just alone
As she is
