do not kill yourself Lyrics

Do not kill yourself

Instead, drive around the neighborhood

Instead, end up sitting in a random parking lot

Instead, listen to Alex G in your car

Instead, wind up visiting your old high school parking lot even though you swore you'd never go back there

Instead, do everything you can to avoid going home to mom

Instead, do everything you can

Instead, do everything you can

Instead, do everything you can to avoid thinking about how absolutely nothing is waiting for you there

Whatever you do

Don't think about how you were junior year of high school

Don't think about your best friend that won't talk to you anymore

Don't think about how her face changed when she laughed at something you said

And don't think about the empty tone of her voice the last few times she spoke to you

But don't forget about it either

You may never know a friendship like that again

There are other things you'll allow yourself to forget about over time

Like how the glass mom threw on the floor jumped and cut your arm

And the first time you thought you'd try it out, give it a go yourself
