Sickened by despair
Your suffering compels you
People knew you were troubled
But no one realized how far you'd gone
No will left to live
When hope faded at last
If you had reached out to someone
They could have
Helped you across the river
Helped you keep your faith in the life you've been given
The need to go on
No one understands how much you struggled
But you need to know
We all need some guidance
When we feel like we're alone
One selfish choice
No reason for hate
You'd had your fill
You faced what we cannot understand
The pain weighed too much
And you fought it all alone
I never knew this side of you
If we had known
We could have
Helped you across the river
To keep your faith in the life you've been given
The need to go on
No one understands how much you struggled
But you need to know
We all need some guidance
When we feel like we're alone
How does the pain become unbearable?
How do you cope with it all?
How did things come this far?
You couldn't hold on
Who can blame you?
Let me help you across the river
Help you keep your faith in the life you've been given
The need to go on
No one understands how much you struggled
But you need to know
We all need some guidance
When we feel like we're alone
Let me help you across the river
Cross the river
Cross the river
Let me help you cross the river
You never came across
