What made it come to this?
What causes us to stand here today?
What made it come to this?
What had us go this way?

Standing in the corner
We have ourselves a loner
Looking to make something of himself.
He fought his heart out;
Never did give a shout.
Now all that's left is a rope hanging down.

What made it come to this?
What causes us to stand here today?
What made it come to this?
What had us go this way?

Down by the river
The girl starts to shiver,
About to take that final step.
She tried so hard
Only to be told she's marred,
Now there's a grave in the yard.

There's no reason it should come to this.
Who said it's the only way?
They should not be forgotten.
But do not crown an early grave.

You told them it was better;
You said they'd be remembered.
Well darling, then who'd want to stay?

What made it come to this?
What causes us to stand here today?
What made it come to this?
What had us go this way?

Never give up,
Never give in.i
Just hold on,
Just breathe in.
Trust me, it gets better.
Don't let society weigh you down;
You are not allowed to drown.

I feel like this one is more dumpster-firey than normal, which is probably because I just pulled lyrics out of my ass. I am so sorry to anyone who actually reads this.
