lyrics

The day the teacher said you will be leaving
I have never seen such pain in your eyes
Just yesterday, we played outside
That was the time of my life
I used to be the kid that was left behind
When other kids were playing I was alone in my mind
My friend

Every chapter has it's ending
Some people just don't let it show
For me it was you leaving
But for you, a rope

I remember the first I saw her
You didn't look like her at all
A mother in her 30's
I never got why she made that call

Every chapter has it's ending
Some people just don't let it show
For me it was you leaving
But for you, a damned piece of rope

Early next morning, you had to cry
I only realised after the teacher had replied
It was suicide

A damned piece of rope
A damned piece of rope
