Here is a song that I made into a jazzy cover which is a surprise for most people. It was popular when I was 14. I was hanging with the cool kids and wagging school and this was one of the songs that was our favorite. I sang this version on the streets when I first started busking six years ago.
Suicide is a subject that requires more open conversation in today's world as this dark spectre has touched so many lives and continues to do so. I hope to spread openness about this subject that we can help alleviate some of the suffering that happens when things go wrong and people consider the ultimate end. So many people lack meaningful communication between equals and part of the issue is the unrealistic expectations that society puts upon us to be a certain way. So reach out and talk comfortably about the subject and never lose hope you will find someone that understands what you are going through.
Here are the abridged lyrics:
Cut my life into pieces
This is my last resort
Suffocation, no breathing
Don't give a hoot if I cut my arm bleeding
Would it be wrong, would it be right
If I took my life tonight
Chances are, mutilation out of sight
I'm contemplating suicide
'cause I'm losing my sight, losing my mind
I wish somebody would tell me I'm fine
Losing my sight, losing my mind
Wish somebody would tell me I'm fine
I never realised I was spread too thin
Till it was too late
Empty within
Feeding on chaos, living in sin
Downward spiral, where to begin
It all started when I lost my mother
No love for myself or my brother
Looking to find a way up on high
And finding nothing but devils
'cause I'm losing my sight, losing my mind
I wish somebody would tell me I'm fine
Losing my sight, losing my mind
Wish somebody would tell me I'm fine
Nothing's ok
Nothing is fine
I'm running, I'm crying
I'm running, I'm crying
I'm running, I'm crying
I can't go on living this way
no no
So you can compare how much I changed the song style, here is the original as well:

Good brother!! I haven't heard this band in a long time. It brings back good memories. I got to hear it live when they performed here in the country. It was at an event called ¨Caracas pop Festival¨. It was a good time in my country (Venezuela). How good it is to remember! Long live rock
