What If I Died Tomorrow


What if I died tomorrow

Would anybody care?

Would anybody even know I left this world alone

No one was there to guide me

To help me through the pain

To show me that there’s someone

Who loves it that I’m there

They think I’m weird and crazy,

That I’m a waste of space

I’m starting to believe them and try to kill the pain

So if I die tomorrow

I’m happier than here

My suffering has ended

This world will not miss me

 

But dying wouldn’t help me

It would just stop the pain

My suffering would end here

But cause my loved ones pain

Maybe I’ll die tomorrow

But think of it this way

We might not think they’ll miss us

But someone, somewhere cares
