This is a song that means an awful lot to me. The message is that despite moving on from hard times with mental illness and feeling better doesn't change the fact that sometimes things get the better of you and you just want to give in and end it all. But it also ends on a nicer note and generally has a nice tone to show that it isn't a nasty horrible thing to feel this way but actually very natural. Let me know what you think.

The grass is green and, the world is mine,
But the razor blade looks nicer than the day before,
I take a drink, I have a smoke,
I am so lonely, and I'm fucking broke,
And nothing seems to change from the dusk til dawn,
A nervous guest, that never leaves,
Now I can't think no, I cannot breathe,
Oh what a beautiful day to die,
They tell me son, don't hurt yourself,
You hurt me first though, my mental health,
Oh what a beautiful day to die,
I'll take a pill, I'll use a rope,
I'll wrap my own hands, around my throat,
Oh what a beautiful day to die,
And will you miss me I guess I'd never know,
But I live on, there's more to tell,
I'll write a new song, and I'll write it well,
But oh what a beautiful day to die,
Oh what a beautiful day to die.
