You never gave the slightest hint that last day
Maybe you knew exactly what we would say
Hard to believe you really wanted it this way
You always had a choice
Was it an ill-timed act of sheer desperation?
Or a quick way in which to end your frustration
Was it the plan you’d had for many a day?
A split decision you regret to this day
If only there were an alternate world, not here and not there
Where those who don’t want to die but don’t want to live can escape
Were the walls just closing in and there was no other way?
Is there anything we could have done to convince you to stay?
This empty feeling, it continues to grow
Questions but answers that we never can know
If there were just some way to give you a voice
So you could tell us why you made the saddest choice
The saddest choice
The saddest choice
The saddest choice
