  • I tried it once before but I didn't get too far
    I felt a lot of pain but it didn't stop my heart
    And all I really wanted was someone to give a little fuck
    But I waited there forever and nobody even looked up

    I tried it once before and I think I mighta messed up
    I struggled with the veins and I guess I didn't bleed enough
    But maybe I'm alive 'cause I didn't really wanna die (wanna die)
    But nothing very special ever happens in my life

    Take the blade away from me
    I am a freak, I am afraid that
    All the blood escaping me won't end the pain
    And I'll be haunting all the lives that cared for me
    I died to be the white ghost
    Of the man that I was meant to be

    I tried it like before and this time I made a deep cut
    I thought about my friends and the way I didn't give enough
    And I shoulda told my mother "Mom, I love you" like a good son
    But this life is overwhelming and I'm ready for the next one

    Take the blade away from me
    I am a freak, I am afraid that
    All the blood escaping me won't end the pain
    And I'll be haunting all the lives that cared for me
    I died to be the white ghost
    Of the man that I was meant to be, yeah

    I tried it once again and I think I might black out
    I should of left a letter but I had nothing to write about
    My blood is all around me, I get dizzy if I stand up
    The cutting part was easy but regretting it is so fucked, yeah

    Take the blade away from me
    I am a freak, I am afraid that
    All the blood escaping me won't end the pain
    And I'll be haunting all the lives that cared for me
    I died to be the white ghost
    Of the man that I was meant to be

    I tried it once again and I think I went too far
    The man that I was meant to be
    I cut a little deeper and the pressure stopped my heart
    The man that I was meant to be
    I couldn't tell my mother that I love her, I'm a bad son
    This life is overwhelming and I'm ready for the next one Writer/s: Alex Espiritu, Anthony Sonetti, Joey Morrow, Josh Katz, Noah Shain
