Suicidal Depression

She walked to school just like everyday
doest think shes very special anyway
they think shes perfect, but theyre wrong
seems shes been imperfect all along

shes not a straight A student for sure
and the doctors just cant find the cure
for this thing thats been growing inside
she doesnt know how long she can hide

but what will happen when it all leaks out
they think they do but they dont know about
the pain she feels knowing she should die
and knowing everyday shell have to lie

this little boy next to her goes to turn away
crossing the street he will die today
when a drunk in his car crosses a read light
he swerves to hit the boy just out of spite

she rushed over to help anyway she could
looking down she knew he didnt look so good
flashing lights and sirens cant help now
she knew this should have been her somehow

as they hauled him away she shed a tear
for all of the life that was wasted here
how much more he could have been
that boy was her neighbor he was only ten

death was something she thought about often
but that boy was innocent, he was the victim
the people in life that deserve to live most
never get a chance, theyre always taken first

suicidal depression was her deadly illness
keeping her away from true happiness
ruining the lives of everyone around
death left her alone with no one to be found

when her time finally came along
she became death but her timing was wrong
her life wasnt as horrible as she thought it to be
her family loved her but she couldnt see

so now after years of lying and secrets
that lonely girl has no more regrets
its the people around her that suffer the most
they will always be haunted by this ghost
