about

This song is dedicated to Martin Funderud. He is the late vocalist of the band Kraanium.

It tells a bit of a story, but this is for awareness more than anything

lyrics

At everyone's life there comes a point
If feels like we want to break
End it all and begin a new
Eternal rest and start something fresh

Holding a knife to your wrist
Putting a gun to you head
Tying a rope around your neck
Seeing hope flee from your feet

Don't let the demons win
Ending it all won't set you free

Don't let the demons win
Stop the repression in its tracks
Suicide is never the solution
Ending it won't set you free

When the demons win
Family and friends pay the price
The repression spreads
And they will want to join you

The demons hold the knife to my wrist
I'm living inside a black hole of confusion
I embrace pain to feel a bitter peace
This confusion has left me blind
I can't take it anymore

At everyone's life there comes a point
If feels like we want to break
End it all and begin a new
Eternal rest and start something fresh

I understand and accept your decision
What you do in life is up to you
But please, if you're feeling this way
Asking for a shoulder doesn't make you weak
All I ask is that you're in a better place

Rest in power
