Have you heard the news today
A boy had jumped and drowned and sank
Lived his whole life full of pain
He said it was the only way
Fixing everything at once
And all his problems were erased
Wrote his last song and he sung
And wouldn't miss those things he faced
I'd rather be dead
Than waking up alone
Freezing cold in bed
As someone no one's ever known
Have you heard those songs he made
His thoughts and lyrics resonate
Now they've heard his music played
And singing every word and sang
Feeling bad they missed the chance
They went about with just a glance
Thought of all they should have said
But it's too late their time is spent
I'd rather be dead
Than waking up alone
Freezing cold in bed
As someone no one's ever known
