Just a phase



They say it's the age,
But what if I stop eating
Start smoking, rip my leg or my head
What if I slowly or fast
Just kill myself
What if I don't make it
Till tomorrow, till that date
Dreams can't hold you
Neither the demons in your head
What if I told you
I'm thinking of jumping straight ahead
Is that normal or
Just my crazy fucking head
And what I'd The phase is a life
Or the end?
They'll say she's crazy
How that happened there?
She had dreams potential, future
A bad moment and then she went
And why she smiled and didn't even asked for help?
Why her room is clean and
Her grades are straight A'
No it's just a phase or a button in her head.
