I see the star shoot from the sky
My wish tonight is that I die
No matter, how many times I try

I slit the vain so carefully
No one around, no eyes could see
I sat on the bed, waiting for me
To expire painlessly

The blood stopped quickly
My face looked sickly
And then my mother exclaimed
Darling, my sweet, darling, my love
Why do you wish to die

Then the rope round my neck
Round the beam and down once more
I kicked the chair onto the ground
Hanging there, I heard no sound

That's no way, they said to me
Just chill out and you will see
Things will change effortlessly

Their words mean nothing to me
But my ways don't set me free
If I could only understand
Life would not seen so blend

How I tried
How I tried

And once I tried to enhance
My life with poison, my last chance
But just before I could
Another came and I knew, I never would

How I tried

All these times, they won't recognize
How tears kept wet my deep brown eyes
They just won't see how I wish to be dead
Then I will no longer see
The tragedy
The pain

How I tried
How I tried
How I tried
