My friend had once texted me saying she wanted to commit suicide. She had been dealing with a lot of shit in her life; bullying, moving away from her life she once had, anxiety, depression, etc. I quickly tried to convince her in any way possible to not commit, which ended up for me being a few serious lines mixed with some humor to make her feel better. At the end of it all, she didn't die, and she's still around today, living life to the best of her extent.
Perhaps that is how you can save a life.

Step one, you say, "We need to talk."
He walks, you say, "Sit down. It's just a talk."
He smiles politely back at you
You stare politely right on through
Some sort of window to your right
As he goes left and you stay right
Between the lines of fear and blame
You begin to wonder why you came
Where did I go wrong? I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life
Let him know that you know best
'Cause after all you do know best
Try to slip past his defense
Without granting innocence
Lay down a list of what is wrong
The things you've told him all along
Pray to God, he hears you
And I pray to God, he hears you
And where did I go wrong? I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life
As he begins to raise his voice
You lower yours and grant him one last choice
Drive until you lose the road
Or break with the ones you've followed
He will do one of two things
He will admit to everything
Or he'll say he's just not the same
And you'll begin to wonder why you came
Where did I go wrong? I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life
Where did I go wrong? I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life
How to save a life
How to save a life
Where did I go wrong? I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life
Where did I go wrong? I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life
How to save a life

I recently lost my dog, whose name was Ginger. She was a miniature pinscher that my mother and I adopted from our local animal shelter. The people said that she was about 4 years old, and they were going to put her down if she didnât get adopted soon. We had her no longer than a week, and she got EXTREMELY sick. We took Ginger to the vet, and she was diagnosed with severe anemia (in other words, her iron count in her blood stream was extremely low.). Ginger had to stay on medication for the remainder of her life. My mother and I had her for about eight years. ( I forgot to mention that my mom and I got her shortly after my father passed away. ) It was the year of 2022 when she died. It was around Thanksgiving time. She started having trouble eating, and my mom and I started getting concerned about her, so we took her to the veterinarianâs office. They said that her liver had shut down, and that her time with us was nearing its end. We decided not to put her down, and to just spend whatever time we had left with her, which was about a week. I went to school that fateful day. When I was about to get picked up from school, I asked my mother how Ginger was doing. She gave me âthe look,â which meant that Ginger had sadly passed away, and crossed the rainbow bridge, and went to see God. My mother and I were crushed, and I laid by Gingerâs dead body, weeping my heart out. Ginger had the best life a dog could ever wish for. I really miss you, little baby girl. This song goes out to you.

Weirdly enough this song makes me happy, because it helped me through so much. This song is the song I'd always listen to when I was upset. It helped me break free from anxiety and depression. I used to let my emotions control my life. Not anymore. I'm 8 months clean of letting my emotions win. And I'm 8 months clean of self harm. If anyone is reading this and going through a tough time, let me tell you it WILL get better. Don't let your emotions control you! You can be strong. You can get through this. I promise you <3

A year and a half ago my dad died from a fall down the stairs, I'm still working my way through the grief. Until a month after his funeral, I was still subconsciously trying to wrap my head around the fact that he was gone, so I spent just under six weeks surrounding the his funeral mentally berating myself because I didn't seem to be feeling as sad as I thought i should. In truth, my emotions were coming in waves, and at that point the first one just hadn't hit yet.
If anyone wonders why I wrote this, well... talking, or in this case writing things out supposedly helps, so I figured It was worth a shot.

Song fact: this song is based on an experience of Isaac Slade when he is a mentor at a camp for trouble teens. This song depicts his and other people's feelings of being stuck and helpless when trying to help troubled kids.
