You said i'm the only one who cares
The only one that treats you right
Don't you dare
Take your own life
Don't you dare
Give up the fight
It started to break me down
I could hear you crying
Somewhere in the background
All I could think
Is if i lost you
I don't know what I'd do
If I lost you
I could never go through
I could never graduate
(I wouldn't have the strength)
I could never love again
(I'd feel too much hate)
Don't you dare
Take your own life
Don't you dare
Give up the fight
Cuz I care
I started to get scared
For the second time in my life
I asked you what you'd do
(I thought you'd use a knife)
You told me you didn't know
I said I didn't wanna say goodbye
Not to another good friend
I never wanna lose you
Don't you dare
Take your own life
Don't you dare
Give up the fight
Cuz I care
You promised me I'd never need to
Say goodbye to you
Not like the rest
If you break your word
It'll break me in two
I asked if my love was enough
You didn't answer at first
I asked you again
(I started to fear the worst)
Don't you dare
Take your own life
Don't you dare
Give up the fight
Because I CARE
