SUICIDE
Kai Tracid Lyrics

Have you ever thought about committing suicide?
Have you ever considered ending your own life?

Leaving the world behind?
Leaving behind all the people, experiences and memories that make up your life?

The sorrow, the pain and the fear
All the negative emotions that lead one to contemplate suicide

Of the unknown future
Fear of what is to come after death

Delivering from any human needs and pressure
Being freed from the demands of society and interpersonal relationships

In just one second
The speed with which one can take their own life

Your cry for help is lost in this lonely world
The difficulty of communicating and receiving support in a world that is often indifferent and unsympathetic

In which you are completely alone
The isolation often felt by those contemplating suicide

Nobody helps you when you're feeling down
The feeling of being ignored or dismissed when opening up about one's struggles

And the loneliness is breaking your heart
The degree of pain that can accompany chronic loneliness

It would be so simple to go down
The ease with which one can carry out suicide

The stairs of the final way
The metaphorical stairs that lead to death

But the fear of the unknown world beyond,
The fear of what lies beyond life

Of having nothing, of being nothing
The fear of what awaits us in death

Keeps you on your designated way
The instinctual desire to continue living, a basic human drive

And takes away your longing for self-destruction
The internal force that drives someone towards suicide losing its hold

That is why
This is the reason why the artist of the song won't commit suicide

You will never commit suicide
The affirmation that the singer of the song will never take their own life
