I wrote this a while back, it's based on some real life stuff as well as some musical influence... I wasn't going to upload but it turned out better than I thought it would... I improvised the vocal notes... it's still a work in progress but let me know if you like it... warning: sad song...

Lyrics:

You seemed so happy, at least content with the time that you had spent
In this life of high school times, we were kids with a simple life
Who would think that you would be on the edge of reality
Wishing the pain would go away, thinking you couldn't live this way

Kept telling yourself you had nothing to hide, except for the pain you hid deep inside
Your closest friends didn't have a clue, cause nothing seemed to bother you
No one thought you were in that state, ready to take your life that day
It's all our fault, we missed the signs, you should have had such a goregous life

Just stopping by the place you lived on that day I can't forget
Knocked so hard on your door, with no answer then I heard
The sound of the gunshot rang so clear, this shouldn't happen senior year
Found you lying on the floor, the note that you left said so much more

"Kept telling myself I had nothing to hide, except for the pain I've held deep inside
My closest friends didn't have a clue, cause I never shared my problems with you
No one thought I was in this state, ready to take my life this way
It's not your fault, I showed no signs, I just couldn't cope with the me inside"

A year has passed, we're in college now, on that day we can't forget
We light a candle to mourn the loss of our dear friend we kept in our hearts
Then remember how selfish you were, taking your life without talking first
We blow out the candle and go on with life, you shouldn't hide something so deep inside

You seemed so happy, at least content, with the time that you had spent
In this life of high school times, we were kids with a simple life...
