Sort It Out

There are voices there in my head
Sometimes they say good, sometimes they say bad
I try to reminisce on the good times I’ve had
But most of the time it ends up going back to the bad.

I’ve tried to kill myself more than once
But now I realise there is more to life than this
So now when I sit and reminisce
I find there are good things and good things to come.

Thank you to radio 1 for fortunately putting that programme on
I was thinking of ending it all there and then
but if it wasn’t for me pressing the wrong button
on my stereo remote I wouldn’t have listened to those radio 1 folk
I would have ended it that night,
I thought jump in front of a truck I might.
But I heard one woman say that there is always light
at the end of the tunnel, at the end of every tunnel

so now I choose to sort out my problems try to get back on track with life
I know there will be some ups and some downs
but now I’m going to try and not to frown
when life’s problems get me down
I’m going to sort it out
Yes, Sort it out

An hour on the phone I spent
at 2am this morning talking to my mom
sorting out what I can do
“take things one step at a time” she said
and ignore those voices in your head.
“I love you and I’m always thinking of you”
and I thought I love you too.
So when you think I’m going to end it today STOP
and think because there is another way
there are people who can help, sort you out
and maybe one day I can guarantee you will look back and say
Did I really want to end my life that way?
