Last Chance
Mommy tells me everything will be fine
Papa can't look me in the eye
Brother gives me a knowing glance
I give myself one last chance
One more chance to do it right,
One last time to put up a fight
One more time before I run out of thread,
Because when I do I'll end up dead
If I fail perhaps they'll say I was far too young to die,
But in their eyes is there ever really a right time to say goodbye?
