IF YOU CAN'T HANG THEN THERE'S THE DOOR-SLEEPING WITH SIRENS

Cutting her wrists
deeper and deeper
she is about ready to leave
leave this earth and never come back

she looks up and she can see god
He says it is not your time
it is not your time to be with me

Her mother beating on her bedroom door
Her mom kicks the door down
she see her baby passed out on the floor bleeding
she calls 911

She wakes up in a hospital bed
She got a second chance
A second chance at life
