Try or Give Up
Ba-dum Ba-dum
My heart beats hard and fast
A taunting reminder to my on-going life
Ba-dum Ba-dum
My heart going so fast
Yet my body Moe's so slow
Ba-dum Ba-dum
Walking down this deserted hallway
I feel as if I might collapse
Ba-dum Ba-dum
The effort to walk is too much
I'm so tired
Ba-dum Ba-dum
This bathroom is full
It won't do
Ba-dum Ba-dum
Visions of my life
I guess it really does flash before your eyes
Ba-dum Ba-dum
What might happen after?
What will people think?
Ba-dum Ba-dum
What of the person who finds me
Dead with nothing but a note?
Ba-dum Ba-dum
How did I get on the floor?
I don't remember
Ba-dum Ba-dum
I practice out the motions
It will all be over soon
Ba-dum Ba-dum
But what of all the things never done?
The things I'll never get to say?
Ba-dum Ba-dum
I shuffle through my pockets
I come out with a disassembled sharpener
Ba-dum Ba-dum
What of my friends?
What of my family?
Ba-dum Ba-dum
My heart beats hard and fast
A taunting reminder that I'm alive
As I walk back to math
