Stop!
Put the blade down
Yes, you
Don't you think it's time for something new?
A new attitude, a new way of dealing with
The things they put you through
A new way to survive
A new way to pull you through
I know
You may not see it now
But if you hold on
You'll see
It always gets better somehow
So throw your self-destructive tool
Away and join the fight
We'll show those in pain
That there's always a light

And I know you think that no one's there
And I know you think that no one cares
But the things they said, they're not true
They're only trying to hurt you
If you go through with this
It'll only get worse

So just throw it away
So just throw the guilt away
All the anger, all the pain
All the fear and all the shame
Just throw it all away

On the edge
There's a girl stood looking down
And she's so far up
She can see the whole town
Little did she know
The very next day
They'd take back all the things they say
But now she'll never find out
Wait it out
Just wait and see
It will get better for both you and me
When the time comes, you'll smile again
It's not an 'if', it's always a 'when'
Please, just wait and see

And I know you think that no one's there
And I know you think that no one cares
But the things they said, they're not true
They're only trying to hurt you
If you go through with this
It'll only get worse

So just throw it away
So just throw the guilt away
All the anger, all the pain
All the fear and all the shame
Just throw it all away

I love this imagery. Very very very powerful. I like that it can be taken multiple ways. As potential suicide but also someone seeing the big picture as well as giving perspective. She is so small compared to the whole town. Love these lines. Love this poem. Very powerful. Full of hope and help.
