Erik Jurado - What Happened, Son? текст песни

Sweet Relief...

Cold steel in my hand.
Sweet relief inside the chamber.
Will I have the courage to send myself to some other land?
As I lie all alone I wonder...

Life is not going the way I planned -
I'm finding it hard to cope.
Everybody's tell me it's temporary -
There's no hope.

I wish that I could share
the burden that lies deep within
that I long for a place warm without a care.
A place where I can fit in.

Tears would pour out of my eyes
If I tried to explain
Don't blame yourself though,
That time never came.

I am loved and will be missed
I know this to be true
I just can't stop myself
What am I to do?

This life is strange and difficult
On the other side it's easy – it's gotta be easy,
Easier than this.
I want release from the unrelenting pain I feel.
This has to be done as soon as possible.

So my cherished loved ones
The clock strikes three
It's time for me to soar
Goodbye.

Kyle, you will be forever 19
in the hearts and minds of your parents
your family, and all of your friends
Goodbye.
