World Book Day

Just to let you know that World Book Day is this Thursday (well, it is in this part of the world, anyway) and to celebrate Alex Barclay and myself will be holding two events. The first, in Kildare, is pretty much sold out, but the second one is in Easons in O'Connell Street, Dublin, at 6 PM. We'll be there, talking about... stuff... and books... and writing... and, er... annnnnyway...

Because this is somewhat last minute, I'm not expecting that many people to turn up to the Dublin event, which means it'll be a lot more casual and chatty than usual. If you're interested, get in touch with Easons to reserve a place, and we'll see you there.

Toodles.

But I won't ask, if you don't want . . .

I am glad your feathered mind is glad, Sharkboy.

*does her best to hug Rhyd without getting him purple*

Rhyd- you're brilliant, alright? And I refuse to believe that you aren't. You're one of my best friends here and you're just awesomely kick ass and anyone who says differently is a naive ignorant little prick.

Star Inkbright said...

*dances on the spot looking smug*

Hello Fabi and Flora.

#ChaseForBook9

Sir said...

Trip, I regret to inform you that our hello is belated, as I have been present for some amount of time.

Noelle said...

*glares at Trip* Cheater.

*hides under a table away from the paint*

Actually, we're both purple because Drew ambushed me

Star Inkbright said...

*Waves at Sir whilst waiting for Death to regain consciousness*

Niccolò Croatoan said...

*appears* I may be in need of some assistance. Either someone is a powerful enough sensitive to alter my perceptions without my knowledge, which I can assure you is no simple task, or I am now susceptible to strikingly vivid hallucinations.

#ChaseForBook9

Lewis Ravenscroft / Rhydian Blake said...

@Adra: Thanks! *hugs* but right now I don't really agree.

@Lia: well...it's nothing. I won't bother you with it.

#ChaseForBook9

Star Inkbright said...

@Hunter: Don't suppose you have any of my clothes in that jacket of yours?

#ChaseForBookNine

Noelle said...

I'm sorry, your Majesty.
*kneels before her, lifting up a sword* I deserve to be executed.

Sir said...

Niccolò, I regret to inform you that the human mind is extremely to toy with, and thus either option is extremely viable.

Jophiel said...

*Waves at Niccolò* I've no idea, Sir. My apologies. *Taps Death with her foot*

Star Inkbright said...

@Ez: No.

#ChaseForBookNine

Noelle said...

Yeah I know, Rhyd and i told you I disagree with your not agreeing.

Death died, Fabi

Trip Castalan, Lord of The Hobbits, The Fourth Most Popular Folk/Parody Banana Thief In The Land said...

Rhydian, you are amazing. I now it's normally one of the things people say to /everyone/ when they don't know what to say, but I mean it. I never say something without absolutely meaning it, and knowing what it means.

And you are truly amazing. A marvel of humanity, without a cruel bone in your body.

#ChaseForBook9

Lewis Ravenscroft / Rhydian Blake said...

No thanks Lia. It's just shit really. (My life) its just shit.

#ChaseForBook9

Noelle said...

Oh good. I get to live. *picks up the sword*

Niccolò Croatoan said...

Rhydian, are you alright?

#ChaseForBook9

Jophiel said...

Death had a small laughing fit and was unable to get enough oxygen. She'll be with you shortly. *Smiles and draws another symbol on her arm, pressing it to Death's neck and tapping it* Sorry for any inconveniences.

Noelle said...

Rhydian, just because what around you is bad, doesn't mean that you are. You are AWESOME. *hugs* And those idiots are just like I said- naive pricks

Queen Flora Ophelia of the Flowers; Leader of the New Land of Stickers; Prophet of the New Order; General of the Shadow People said...

*glares at Rhydian*
Well now I'm just going to sit here and worry.
Goddamn you -_-

Not really Niccolo. But I won't bother you with my poor existence

are we here???

Trip Castalan, Lord of The Hobbits, The Fourth Most Popular Folk/Parody Banana Thief In The Land said...

You are...

A jewel. Someone we should strive to be on the same level as. An example to us all. Rhydian, you are truly, amazing.

#ChaseForBook9

Jophiel said...

What Mss Dark has said is very true, Mr Saint. *Smiles happily* Listen to her, she knows well.

Snow said...

yes, it appears we are!

hello!!

wbd, msd

Fabi S. - Fashion-Conscious Fire Wraith said...

I'm gonna second what people said about you being amazing, Rhydian, but I don't have the brain power to write a speech right now.

Oh, dear. That's unfortunate.

#ChaseForBook9

Trip Castalan, Lord of The Hobbits, The Fourth Most Popular Folk/Parody Banana Thief In The Land said...

Yes Snow.

#ChaseForBook9

Lewis Ravenscroft / Rhydian Blake said...

Lia there's no need to worry. I promise.

#ChaseForBook9

Jophiel said...

*Miss

And the others, Saint. They all mean well. They all know well. Listen to them.

Fabi S. - Fashion-Conscious Fire Wraith said...

Hi Snow.

#ChaseForBook9

Trip Castalan, Lord of The Hobbits, The Fourth Most Popular Folk/Parody Banana Thief In The Land said...

Rhydian, what are we here for if not to be bothered by other people's issues?

Fire away.

#ChaseForBook9

Sir said...

Well, as above, so below...

Niccolò Croatoan said...

Rhydian, I can assure you nothing you say will bother me.

#ChaseForBook9

Noelle said...

*glares at Rhydian* I swear. People do care about you. They do- we do- we love you, Rhydian - and you are genuine. Which, as you know, isn't easy to come by. You're a rarity- someone who is so pure and good and nice and kind- that others will put you down for it. But you are bigger than them and so much better. You mustn't let their shallow words hit you. And in a few years you won't have to deal with them any more

Lewis Ravenscroft / Rhydian Blake said...

Just ignore me.

#ChaseForBook9

Trip Castalan, Lord of The Hobbits, The Fourth Most Popular Folk/Parody Banana Thief In The Land said...

No.

#ChaseForBook9

Niccolò Croatoan said...

I believe I can soundly speak for us all when I say that the last thing anyone here will do is ignore you, Rhydian.

(I'm not going to bother telling you how awesome I know you are cos I've told you countless times before and what I've said will never change)

Noelle said...

RHYDIAN I WILL SHOVE YOU INTO A BEAR

Noelle said...

*STUFFED BEAR

-_-

Jophiel said...

*Gasps and sits up* Ow! *Chuckles* That you, reflection. *Stands up and checks on Bruno*

Trip Castalan, Lord of The Hobbits, The Fourth Most Popular Folk/Parody Banana Thief In The Land said...

Yeah, it's eating away at me. I'm too curious, is what they all say. I'm inclined to agree.

#ChaseForBook9

Fabi S. - Fashion-Conscious Fire Wraith said...

Rhydian, seriously. You're a good person.

#ChaseForBook9

Lewis Ravenscroft / Rhydian Blake said...

It's honestly nothing.

#ChaseForBook9

Jophiel said...

*Picks up Bruno and raises an eyebrow at Rhy* You can tell us. I know that something's up.

Noelle said...

Rhydian- don't pull this on us.

Tell us. Please

Lewis Ravenscroft / Rhydian Blake said...

Just continue talking ab and dancing. I'd rather be alone.

#ChaseForBook9

Niccolò Croatoan said...

You've already spoiled any chance of that happening.

#ChaseForBook9

Noelle said...

No, Rhydian.

Trip Castalan, Lord of The Hobbits, The Fourth Most Popular Folk/Parody Banana Thief In The Land said...

Yeah, don't pull the stiff upper lip on us Rhydian. I've done it and do it, but it still isolates you, strands you from help.

#ChaseForBook9

Niccolò Croatoan said...

Death, might I ask who Bruno is?

#ChaseForBook9

Lewis Ravenscroft / Rhydian Blake said...

I like being isolated. I'm used to being secluded

#ChaseForBook9

Jophiel said...

*Points to the reflection and then to Rhy* *The reflection walks up to Rhy and sits down next to him* And she won't leave you, Rhy!

Noelle said...

Rhydian- come on. You want to be helped, and you deserve to be. And I only say that because if you didn't want our help and truly wanted to sit in silence, I don't think you would have commented.

But you have out 110% attention- please. Talk to us

Fabi S. - Fashion-Conscious Fire Wraith said...

Rhydian, we're all here to help. And we're annoying enough to pester you until you let us help. :-P

#ChaseForBook9

Queen Flora Ophelia of the Flowers; Leader of the New Land of Stickers; Prophet of the New Order; General of the Shadow People said...

But that's not true.
If you'd rather be alone then you wouldn't be here. There is a reason that you're still here, talking to us. There is a reason that you decided to tell us that things aren't great with you. And there is a reason that you're telling us to ignore you.
You're subconsciously bringing attention to your problem because you actually WANT to talk it through.
So please, tell us what's wrong.



And I studied Psychology so I know my shit.


#chaseforbook9

Lewis Ravenscroft / Rhydian Blake said...

(Is secluded the right word for it?)

#ChaseForBook9

Jophiel said...

*Grins and places Bruno in Niccolò's arms* He's my son... *Laughs and screws up face* I'm so not ever going to get used to that!!

Trip Castalan, Lord of The Hobbits, The Fourth Most Popular Folk/Parody Banana Thief In The Land said...

So am I. But sometimes you need to open up. I'm often described as a rock, but even the toughest rock can be worn down by the stream of time, and occasionally, needs a little help.

#ChaseForBook9

Noelle said...

*nods to Flora* *high fives* Hot damn the Royal family knows their shit

Fabi S. - Fashion-Conscious Fire Wraith said...

[Nods to Flora]

Exactly.

Hail to the Royal knowing of shit!


#chaseforbook9

Lewis Ravenscroft / Rhydian Blake said...

I don't wanna talk about it. Really. I'd rather be cut off from everyone else.

#ChaseForBook9

Niccolò Croatoan said...

*holds Bruno carefully* He is lovely, Death. I shall admit, however, that I doubt it wise to trust me with a child. *hands Bruno back*

#ChaseForBook9

Jophiel said...

Rhy, tell us. Please...

Trip Castalan, Lord of The Hobbits, The Fourth Most Popular Folk/Parody Banana Thief In The Land said...

Fine Rhydian. But remember, you have to take off that armour sometime, and let it be amongst friends, not those who would seize the chance to strike.

#ChaseForBook9

Noelle said...

Fine.

If you don't want to talk about it, fine-

But you have to know that we love you. So,so much. And you are part of our family, got that? We all are a big ball of jumbly wumbly... Stuff. Got it? *hugs*
















And you look like Joseph Gordon Levitt

Lewis Ravenscroft / Rhydian Blake said...

It's nothing. It's basically just me wishing I was dead coz my life is shit

#ChaseForBook9

Niccolò Croatoan said...

Rhydian, please. I can understand you not wishing to draw attention to yourself, however you must know by now that the more you insist upon isolation, the more we will insist that you tell us.

#ChaseForBook9

Queen Flora Ophelia of the Flowers; Leader of the New Land of Stickers; Prophet of the New Order; General of the Shadow People said...

*shakes Rhydian*
*makes pterodactyl squawk*


YOU HAD BETTER TELL ME, MISTER, OR I WILL...



...I was going to say fuck you up but that seems rather vicious...




...er...


...throw cupcakes at you...

...yeah...

...cupcakes, bitch...


#chaseforbook9

Fabi S. - Fashion-Conscious Fire Wraith said...

[Curses]

I have to bike to the store for dinner, see you all later.

Rhydian, we're always here for you.

#ChaseForBook9

Niccolò Croatoan said...

Or perhaps we will let you alone, after all. In either case, as Adra so wonderfully put, you must know how valuable you are to all of us.

#ChaseForBook9

Lewis Ravenscroft / Rhydian Blake said...

Bye Fabi!

#ChaseForBook9

Noelle said...

Bye Fabi *hugs*

Flora, you're terrifying

Jophiel said...

*Cradles Bruno carefully* Thank you, and I think I'd trust you more with him than I would with others! *Walks back to Bruno's cot and places him down*

Noelle said...

*bows* I have a way with words in times of dire need

Lewis Ravenscroft / Rhydian Blake said...

I live in the country and have cats and like reading and having afternoon tea.

#chaseforbook9

Jophiel said...

Rhy, my life is terrible too. I know what it feels like to be at rock bottom. If you ever feel like you can't go on, please, tell us! Email me. deathyrose@gmail.com

I swear to God, Rhy. You're like my little brother. I would do anything for you.

Bye Fabi.

Trip Castalan, Lord of The Hobbits, The Fourth Most Popular Folk/Parody Banana Thief In The Land said...

Neither does mine. No one's does. We can all act as if we have it all figured out, as if our lives travel in straight lines, but we are merely deluding ourselves to stay happy. If I think to the future, I have no plans. Zilch. My life is a blank canvas, and I have yet to learn to paint.

#ChaseForBook9

Noelle said...

I know the feeling. Life is confusing, otherwise what would be the point.

I don't know if you were here for this... But I believe that each energy or spirit or soul or what have you comes to be for a reason, as part of their journey- that everyone came here to learn something- one little thing.
*shrugs* Maybe you were here for your own lesson. But all I am saying is that you can get through this. I know you can.

Also, sorry about forcing my beliefs onto you- I'm just telling it from my perspective

Lewis Ravenscroft / Rhydian Blake said...

I hate being a fucking spaz!!!! It makes life so difficult!!!! *smashes plate*

Even through all my talk, all my work, I'm still stuck in my own little world.

#ChaseForBook9

Noelle said...

*rolls her eyes* Rhydian- that's what makes you you. You're still Lewis (insert badass last name here). All the labels that people have given you don't matter. The only one that does is Rhydian.

Trip Castalan, Lord of The Hobbits, The Fourth Most Popular Folk/Parody Banana Thief In The Land said...

Not now Zaf.

#ChaseForBook9

Noelle said...

Zaf- curious. You clearly read up so you know that Ari was here, but... You've somehow thought that an RP dance is more important than Rhydian, because I know you saw it...

Later

Jophiel said...

Rhy, I still don't know who I am. I've never known. *Hugs tightly*

Lewis Ravenscroft / Rhydian Blake said...

And...people can be such duck heads! Mum's ill and no one has a fucking clue to what's wrong with her. And dad just survived cancer but I thought he was gonna die! And my sis is stuck in the middle of all this. And...I don't understand things that everyone else seems to get on with so bloody easily.

YOU ARE ALL SO WISE *hugs everyone tightly* I LOVE YOU ALL TO HELL AND BACK

Lewis Ravenscroft / Rhydian Blake said...

...I'm also scared of being alone. It freaks the shit outta me. Everyone else has friends and people they care about...and nobody ever notices me...

#ChaseForBook9

Noelle said...

Ay- Rhyds. My family's a mess as well- but you stick together, you hear me? You raise a hand to the word and say "fuck you" and you stick to them. That's how you survive, Rhydian. I wasn't exactly like you, but we didn't stay together. And now my brothers and I are so distant. Seven years later, we're finally becoming friends.

Do you hear me.

Friends fade but you're stuck with family. They're your helping hands.

Niccolò Croatoan said...

Rhydian, nothing I can say will change your situation, but you will come out of it somehow- you must- and everyone here, including myself, is more than willing to support you along the way.

*clears throat and takes a step away from Aretha*

Hello, Zafira.

Queen Flora Ophelia of the Flowers; Leader of the New Land of Stickers; Prophet of the New Order; General of the Shadow People said...

Rhydian...
It really does upset me that you honestly can't see how amazing you are. I love everyone on the blog, but there are a certain few that I hold in my heart and are a stupid-level of precious to me. And you are one of those people.
I honestly love you to bits and the fact that you can't see that and can't see how much you mean to me, and to others, really breaks my heart.
Things can be tough, I know that. But you will always have us, though whatever, no matter what.
Okay? Okay.

Snow said...

right... so what have i missed??

Noelle said...

I KNOW, RHYDIAN. DOENSN'T IT SUCK?
GOD
PEOPLE ARE SO FUCKING OBNOXIOUS.

I hated feeling alone- sometimes when I'm at home and everyone is out, I'll cry. And it is HARD. And it won't stop hurting, ever. But it will be made easier for you, Rhydian. You have to try to smile when you don't feel like it- try to laugh, watch a good program or two. You have us- we could start google hangouts regularly if you wanted-

You aren't alone. I refuse to let you believe that

Trip Castalan, Lord of The Hobbits, The Fourth Most Popular Folk/Parody Banana Thief In The Land said...

Because we forget our feelings.

It's what I do. One by one, dropping away from me. Who I am, changing to survive. I want to be that boy who didn't have to cling on to inner peace for dear life, because it's his most prized possession. I want to be that boy who had i all still there. But I changed, I lost people, went to school in the city, hardened up emotionally. I changed, and I became a worse person. I'm trying to fix myself, hold it together, but it's hard. It's as if my very humanity is slipping away, just so I can live on. We may seem like we can do it. Like we know what we're doing, but really, we're just adapting, changing inside. Losing ourselves to it, to spare us the pain.

Or at least, that's me.

#ChaseForBook9

Okay Ari

Hey Snowlock *winks*

Maralie Lily Charm said...


Skies are crying, I am watching
Catching tear drops in my hands
Only silence as it's ending
Like we never had a chance
Do you have to make me feel like
There's nothing left of me?

You can take everything I have
You can break everything I am
Like I'm made of glass
Like I'm made of paper
Go on and try to tear me down
I will be rising from the ground
Like a skyscraper
Like a skyscraper

As the smoke clears, I awaken
And untangle you from me
Would it make you feel better
To watch me while I bleed?
All my windows still are broken
But I'm standing on my feet

You can take everything I have
You can break everything I am
Like I'm made of glass
Like I'm made of paper
Go on and try to tear me down
I will be rising from the ground
Like a skyscraper
Like a skyscraper

Go run, run, run
I'm gonna stay right here,
Watch you disappear
Yeah, oh
Go run, run, run
Yeah, it's a long way down
But I am closer to the clouds up here

You can take everything I have
You can break everything I am
Like I'm made of glass
Like I'm made of paper
Oh Oh
Go on and try to tear me down
I will be rising from the ground
Like a skyscraper
Like a skyscraper

(Like a skyscraper)

Like a skyscraper
Like a skyscraper

You're amazing. Please, just never forget that. Please. Promise me. Promise us.

Jophiel said...

Rhy... Life is just a test.
It's trying to perfect the next generation. It's seeing how much shit we can take until it puts us on our ass. But if you fight it, if you kick it where it hurts you will get the best out of it.

Noelle said...

No.

You stop this, Rhydian. Just- stop. You keep looking back on things- don't do that. Ever. You've got to keep going forward, looking forward or else you'll be lost.

rhydian, ignore the past, the past is crap. look for the best future possible and force life to give it to you.

Lewis Ravenscroft / Rhydian Blake said...

Forward? I haven't got a future either.

None of us do. No matter who we are, the future is not there. It hides from us only allowing us the present, constantly guessing.

Snap out of it. You're greater than this, you just won't admit it to yourself. It's okay to feel good once in a while. When you're surrounded by darkness, you get used to it, and you don't want to let the light touch you, you cling to it. ((You being the universal you))

Listen to me- you can still change. 14, right? Only fourteen, that's not even that much- you have so much time to be something new, and to develop and form yourself. Every teenager goes through this really shitty stage, but it will make you better for it, in the long run. It will. Trust me.

FUCK-

KERMIT IS MY SPIRIT ANIMAL, OKAY

Lewis Ravenscroft / Rhydian Blake said...

I can't live like this. I'm constantly scared of what people think of me. I don't like being judged.

Life is too hard...I'm not going to get through this.

#ChaseForBook9

Snow said...

right

*hauls rhydian up straight*


get a hold, okay? all of you people are perfect. all of you. you need to realize this. you think i am alone, no one understands but your wrong. we all understand. no matter what, you always have us! *hugs*

And when you're surrounded by light, sometimes you have to slip into darkness.

#ChaseForBook9

Noelle said...

*nods* It's balance, Rhydian.

All my alchemy stuff? Did you think that that was character things? I honestly believe that. You need to find balance, Rhydian. You need to put yourself in places that will make you happy. Because over time it will make you happier

and all your scars
will fade:
make today
the moment when you decide
to grow white wings
and finally be
okay

God, I can feel it. I can feel the armour weighing on my soul.



Yes you can Rhydian. People who mind don't matter, an people who matter don't mind.

Remember that, it's important.

Lewis Ravenscroft / Rhydian Blake said...

I don't feel comfortable anywhere. My own house doesn't feel like home anymore. I just can't be bothered to keep going.

#ChaseForBook9

Jophiel said...

Rhy, take it from me, I've been depressed for... Seven years now. Life turns to shit so easily and you all know that. But Rhy, keep on smiling and you'll be able to escape later in life.

Trip Castalan, Lord of The Hobbits, The Fourth Most Popular Folk/Parody Banana Thief In The Land said...

Have you tried meditating? And bonding with nature? That helped me.

#ChaseForBook9

Jophiel said...

There's never sun without shadows, brother. You can't have light without the dark, you can't have the sweet without the bitter, you can't have a ying without the yang.

Noelle said...

Rhydian, listen up:

You are the only one who can change you. We can give suggestions, but if you need change, you have to find it. When you are an adult- you can go wherever you want to- you can find your home. You can live there.

Please, listen. This is a low day, right? There are low days and up days and sometimes there are many low days and sometimes there are many up days.

You have to live for those up days. Those good days where you are happy.

Snow said...

you are loved here. if nowhere else, you are loved here.

this is a home. this is a family.

Noelle said...

Meditation- THAT is the shit, Rhydian. It keeps you grounded. Really- look it up. Try it. Be one with your chakras and thingsyouprobablydon'tknowabout

Jophiel said...

*Sings softly, hugging Rhy*
Well you only need the light when it's burning low
Only miss the sun when it starts to snow
Only know you love her when you let her go

Only know you've been high when you're feeling low
Only hate the road when you’re missin' home
Only know you love her when you let her go
And you let her go

Staring at the bottom of your glass
Hoping one day you'll make a dream last
But dreams come slow and they go so fast

You see her when you close your eyes
Maybe one day you'll understand why
Everything you touch surely dies

But you only need the light when it's burning low
Only miss the sun when it starts to snow
Only know you love her when you let her go

Only know you've been high when you're feeling low
Only hate the road when you're missin' home
Only know you love her when you let her go

Staring at the ceiling in the dark
Same old empty feeling in your heart
'Cause love comes slow and it goes so fast

Well you see her when you fall asleep
But never to touch and never to keep
'Cause you loved her too much
And you dived too deep

Well you only need the light when it's burning low
Only miss the sun when it starts to snow
Only know you love her when you let her go

Only know you've been high when you're feeling low
Only hate the road when you're missin' home
Only know you love her when you let her go

And you let her go (oh, oh, ooh, oh no)
And you let her go (oh, oh, ooh, oh no)
Will you let her go?

'Cause you only need the light when it's burning low
Only miss the sun when it starts to snow
Only know you love her when you let her go

Only know you've been high when you're feeling low
Only hate the road when you're missin' home
Only know you love her when you let her go

'Cause you only need the light when it's burning low
Only miss the sun when it starts to snow
Only know you love her when you let her go

Only know you've been high when you're feeling low
Only hate the road when you're missin' home
Only know you love her when you let her go

And you let her go

It just lets me switch off my brain. All those thoughts, all those issues, gone. For a little while I get some peace.

Lewis Ravenscroft / Rhydian Blake said...

I can't fix this...I'm in too deep.

Noelle said...

*nods* Meditation. Finding your Center. It's great

Noelle said...

So was I, Rhydian- but if you dig deep enough, you'll come out the other side

Snow said...

*faceplants*

i am sick of this. i am sick of you amazing people feeling like you are nothing.

i understand that you probably don need this right now, but by god, you shall get it.

you people are amazing. you are a light in the shadows.

if people have nowhere else to go, nowhere else to turn, they can come here and you welcome them with open arms.

get it into your heads. people need you, even if they deny it, they need people like you too keep them going.

without places like this blog, people would crash and burn.

this isn't just for Rhydian, this is for all of you:
You Are The Best God Damm People Ever!

Lewis Ravenscroft / Rhydian Blake said...

All I want is that one phone call from my friend...I miss her so much. She's like my clarity in a way.

#ChaseForBook9

Jophiel said...

Rhy, I'm far too deep, myself. I've been through shit and through Hell. I'm here for you. Life stinks.

Noelle said...

Email? Write a letter? Telegram?

Jophiel said...

Rhy, what happens when you dig into the ground?

Snow said...

*hugs all*

Jophiel said...

I dedicate this page to Rhy. No explanation needed. That kid is freaking amazing and if he doesn't realise it, I don't care. We all know he's perfect.

Lewis Ravenscroft / Rhydian Blake said...

I have no one.

#ChaseForBook9

Snow said...

you have us.

Noelle said...

Maralie Lily Charm said...

If you're strong enough
to take that blade
and draw it across your skin
If you're strong enough
to take those pills and swallow
them when no one's home
If you're strong enough
to tie that rope and hang
it from the ceiling fan
If you're strong enough
to jump off that bridge,
my friend...
You are strong enough to live.

*hugs everyone*
