This goes with the song Would I by Maddie Lindemann. It falls into the instrumental part towards the end starting at 2:07.

Would I jump off a bridge
For a second of flight
Take another pill
Just to extend the high

Would I cut one more time
Just to watch the blood flow
Stop fighting the words
And let myself go

Would I flush all my meds
In a second of doubt
Lie on the screen
To build up my clout

Withdraw from this world
For a minute of peace
Escape from my thoughts
As if they'd let me be

Could I cut off my hair
And watch it fall down
Scream in my mind
Without making a sound

Would I dive under water
Releasing my breath
Could I not even fight
As I sink to my death

Questioning life
As I question myself
Who am I really?
Can anyone tell?

This battle is hard
I don't know if I'll win
I guess I'll just wait
And see in the end

Optional verse:
Skip a few meals
For the number to drop
Cause maybe then
The taunting will stop

This can be subbed in for another verse if you like it better or it matches your thoughts and feelings more.
