One More Step
i dont understand
 whats stopping me?
 theres only a foot of land
 in front of me
 
 with one step,
 i fall down so far
 ill feel no more
 no more pain
 no more tears 
 no more fears
 
 but theres more
 i havent seen yet
 forget the war
 yeah, were in debt
 
 I cant go home
 they hate me
 so i was told
 ill never be free
 
 this is my only option
 isnt that right?
 it's getting dark
 its almost night
 
 just one step 
 could make me free
 make me fall
 so let it be
 
 so what next?
 one step forward, 
 or one step back?
 
 they couldn't just daid 
 they loved me
 and when im dead, 
 how sad will they be?
 
 if i go home,
 they wont care
 that im alive
 theyll be mad that
 i dared to try
 
 whats stopping me?
 theres only one more step 
 in front of me
 is what left 
 enough to be
 a savior for me?

lol. sorry. its just.. sometimes it needs to be said. i wish i could tell you it will get better. but i cant. i dont know when, but i guess, after awhile, it cant get any worse.
i guess..just keep praying. that helps me. keep writing. keep letting it out, to someone, something. something thats maybe not self destructive. im pretty sure you dont need to hear the dont kill yourself thing. especially since you dont even know me. but.. just hang in there.
