SUICIDE

Suicide...

A negative message implied

When we wrecklessly decide 

To run and hide

Suicide...

When we neglect our pride

So deep inside 

Many tears we cried

Suicide...

When our hope has died 

Our abilities were not applied 

Consequently, our dreams were set aside 

Suicide...

A turbulent tide

The ocean is too wide

To reach the other side 

Suicide...

This death wish ride 

Our spirituality we denied 

And into the bottomless pit we slide 

Suicide...

If in our Most High we confide

And in His Word we abide

Eternally, in His Kingdom we'll reside
