“A little too young to feel this old, A little too shy to act this bold, A little too sad to be so mad, I'm a little too smart to be so bad. I don't wanna be alone with myself, I'm afraid what I'll see when I look at me.

Turn the music up too loud, make it too loud.” A Little Too Young by Sunday Lane.

"After all the pain you put me through, I can’t stand to see the sight of you, And you won’t drown me in your misery, You’ll have to find someone else, To be your company…You made our life together so desolate, Well I’ll just call this my resurrection, My saviour from self-destruction."

"Everyone longs to be loved, what can I say to that? But the door to the heart is open and shut, like the warmth of your breath. Everyone longs to be heard, but we tend to get caught in the noise. Oh, what I'd give, how far I'd search, just to hear your voice. If this was our last dance, I'd wait in the rain, Just to see your face. If this was our last chance, I'd ask you to stay, for one last dance. I'm not afraid of dying. There's too much to miss in life, But I can't begin to even imagine, you not by my side.

How could this happen to me, I made my mistakes, I’ve got nowhere to run, The night goes on, As I’m fading away, I’m sick of this life, I just wanna scream, How could this happen to me. Everybody’s screaming, I try to make a sound but no one hears me, I’m slipping off the edge, I’m hanging by a thread, I wanna start this over again. So I try to hold, onto a time when, nothing mattered and I can’t explain what happened, and I can’t erase the things that I’ve done. No I can’t.” ‘How Could This Happen To Me?’ Simple Plan.

“I settled down, and twisted apart, Disguised as a smile, well, you would have never known...The truth never set me free

I lose my way, And it's not too long before you point it out, I cannot cry, Because I know that's weakness in your eyes, I'm forced to fake, A smile, a laugh every day of my life, My heart can't possibly break, When it wasn't even whole to start with...I was so young, You should have known better than to lean on me, You never thought of anyone else, You just saw your pain, And now I cry in the middle of the night, For the same damn thing.” ‘Because of You’ Kelly Clarkson.

You see there's no real ending, It's only the beginning, Come out and play." Her Name Is Alice by Shinedown.

“No one talks to her, she feels so alone, She’s in too much pain to survive on her own, The hurt she can’t handle overflows to a knife, She writes on her arm, wants to give up her life, Each day she goes on is a day that she is brave, Fighting the lie that giving up is the way, Each moment of courage her own life she saves, When she throws the pills out, a hero is made... Little Mikey-Dee was the one in class, Who everyday got brutally harassed, This went on for years, Till he decided that never again would he shed another tear, So he walked through the door, And grabbed the .44 out of his father's dresser drawer, He said 'I can't take life no more', And like that a life can be lost, But this ain't even about that, All of us just sat back and watched it happen, Thinking it’s not our responsibility, To solve a problem that isn't even about me, This is our problem. This is just one of the daily scenarios, In which we choose to close our eyes, Instead of doing the right thing, If we make a choice and be the voice, For those who won't speak up for themselves, How many lives would be saved, changed, rearranged? Now it's our time to pick a side. So don't keep walking by not wanting to intervene, Cause you just want to exist and never be seen.” Superchick ‘Hero’.

“Nothing I say will wash it away, I'm standing in the pouring rain, You say it won't happen again, You're manic, manic, There's a chemical in your brain, It's pouring sunshine in the rain, You can never know what to expect, You're manic, manic.” ‘Manic’ by Plumb.

“She hides the bruises with the linen and lace, The teacher wonders but she doesn't ask, It's hard to see the pain behind the mask, Bearing' the burden of a secret storm, Sometimes she wishes she was never born.

“She lives in a fairy tale, Somewhere too far for us to find, Forgotten the taste and smell, Of the world that she's left behind, It's all about the exposure the lens I told her, The angles were all wrong now, She's ripping wings off of butterflies. With her feet on the ground, and her head in the clouds. Well go get your shovel, and we'll dig a deep hole, to bury the castle, bury the castle. So one day he found her crying, Coiled up on the dirty ground, Her prince finally came to save her, And the rest you can figure out, But it was a trick, And the clock struck 12, Well make sure to build your house brick by boring brick, or the wolves gonna blow it down...Well you built up a world of magic, Because your real life is tragic.” Brick by Boring Brick by Paramore.

“She walked away. Couldn't say why she was leaving." She Walked Away - BarlowGirl.

“She's all alone, feels like it’s all coming down, She won't turn around, The shadows are long and she fears if she cries that first tear, the tears will not stop raining down. So stand in the rain, Stand your ground, Stand up when it's all crashing down, You stand through the pain, You won't drown, And one day, what’s lost can be found, You stand in the rain.” Stand In the Rain – Superchick

“She's fine, most of the time…But sometimes she falls down. Breathe, just breathe, Take the world off your shoulders, and put it on me.

Then let it all come out.” Breathe by Ryan Star.

“There’s a moment in time, And it’s stuck in my mind, way back when we were kids, Cause your eyes told the tale, Of an act of betrayal, I knew that somebody did, Oh waves of time, Seem to wash away, The scenes of out crimes, But for you this never end. Can you stay strong? Can you go on? Kristy are you doing okay?...I knew something was wrong, And I should have spoke out.

TV QUOTES

“[Brooke] George Bernard Shaw once wrote; ‘There are two tragedies in life. One is to lose your heart's desire. The other is to gain it.’ Clearly, Shaw had his heart broken once or twice. [Nathan] As far as I'm concerned, Shaw was a punk. Cause you know what? Tragedies happen. What are you gonna do, give up? Quit? No. I realize now that when your heart breaks, you got to fight like hell to make sure you’re still alive. Because you are. And that pain you feel? That's life. The confusion and fear? That's there to remind you, that somewhere out there is something better, and that something is worth fighting for. [Haley] This year, I got everything I wanted and everything I wished for. But in a way, I lost even more. [Lucas] Shaw was right. As we strain to grasp the things we desire, the things we think will make our lives better: money, popularity, fame... we ignore what truly matters, the simple things, like friendship, family, love. The things we probably already had. [Peyton] Yes, losing your heart's desire is tragic. But gaining your heart's desire? That's all you can hope for. This year I wished for love... to immerse myself in someone else and to wake a heart long afraid to feel. My wish was granted. And if having that is tragic, then give me tragedy. Because I wouldn't give it back for the world.” One Tree Hill.

“[Lucas] And Hansel said to Gretel: ‘Let us drop these bread crumbs, so that together we find our way home, because losing our way would be the most cruel of things’. This year I lost my way. [Nathan] And losing your way on a journey is unfortunate. But losing your reason for the journey... is a fate more cruel. [Peyton] The journey lasted eight months. Sometimes I travelled alone. Sometimes there were others who took the wheel, and took my heart. But when the destination was reached, it wasn't me who'd arrived. It wasn't me at all. [Brooke] And once you lose yourself, you have two choices. Find the person you used to be, or lose that person completely. [Mouth] Because sometimes, you have to step outside of the person you've been, and remember the person you were meant to be. The person you wanted to be. The person you are.” One Tree Hill.

"There are moments in our lives when we find ourselves at a crossroads. The choices we make in those moments can define the rest of our days. And, of course when faced with the unknown, most of us prefer to turn around and go back. But, once in a while, people push onto something better. Something found just beyond the pain of going it alone. And just beyond the bravery and courage it takes to let someone in. Or to give someone a second chance. Something beyond the quiet persistence of a dream. Because, it's only when you’re tested that you truly discover who you are. And, it's only when you're tested that you discover who you can be. The person you want to be does exist; somewhere on the other side of hard work and faith and belief. And, beyond the heartache and fear of what lies ahead." OTH [Lucas.]

“Does this darkness have a name? This cruelty, this hatred. How did it find us? Did it steal into our lives or did we seek it out and embrace it? What happened to us? That we now send our children out into the world like we send young men to war, hoping for their safe return but knowing that some will be lost along the way. When did we lose our way? Consumed by the shadows, swallowed whole by the darkness. Does this darkness have a name? Is it your name?” OTH [Lucas.]

“Robert Louis Stevenson once said; ‘you cannot run away from a weakness; you must sometimes fight it out or perish.’ And if that be so, why not now, and where you stand?" OTH, Lucas.

“At this moment there are 6,470,818,671 people in the world. Some are running scared. Some are coming home. Some tell lies to make it through the day. Others are just now facing the truth. Some are evil men, at war with good. And some are good, struggling with evil. Six billion people in the world. Six billion souls. And sometimes -- all you need is one.” OTH, [Peyton.]

“Someone once said that death is not the greatest loss in life. The greatest loss is what dies inside of us while we live. And we tell ourselves that it’s all going to be okay, but it’s not okay. There’s no magic in the world; at least not today there isn’t.” Haley, One Tree Hill.

"It all just feels so fake, you know? This idea that good things happen to good people. That there’s magic in the world, and that the meek and the righteous will inherit it. Too many good people suffer for that to be true. Too many prayers go unanswered. And every day it just gets worse. Every day we ignore how truly broken this world is, and we tell ourselves it’s all going to be okay. But it’s not going to be okay. And once you know that, there’s no going back. There’s no magic in the world…at least today there isn’t." Haley, One Tree Hill.

‘So you're always honest,’ I said. ‘Aren't you?’ ‘No,’ I told him. ‘I'm not.’ ‘Well, that's good to know, I guess.’ ‘I'm not saying I'm a liar,’ I told him. He raised his eyebrows. ‘That's not how I meant it, anyways.’ ‘How'd you mean it, then?’ ‘I just...I don't always say what I feel.’ ‘Why not?’ ‘Because the truth sometimes hurts,’ I said. ‘Yeah,’ he said. ‘So do lies, though.’ “Sarah Dessen (Just Listen).

POETRY

“If when you wake up in the morning, and the hurting is so great, you don’t want to get out of bed, and face a world of hate. If everything in life goes wrong, and nothing you do seems right, you just try a little harder, and soon you’ll see the light. For every person who has put you down, and filled your life with pain, you must strive to achieve greatness, and show them you can win. For every disappointment, for the times you are let down, there will be a better moment, and your life will turn around. Because everyone feels heartache, and everyone feels pain, but only those who have true courage, Can get up and try again.” Teal Henderson, Again.

“I am the poet writing of my pain. I am the person living a life of shame. I am your daughter hiding my depression. I am your sister making a good impression. I am your friend acting like I’m fine. I am a wisher wishing this life weren’t mine. I am a girl who thinks of suicide. I am a teenage pushing her tears aside. I am a student who doesn’t have a clue. I am the girl sitting next to you. I am the one asking you to care. I am your best friend hoping you’ll be there.” Krysteen Hernandez, I Am.

“As the days pass slowly, and the weeks creep by, I find myself obsessing, about the ways that I could die. I lay awake at night, thinking of my pain. There’s no way it can get better, I have nothing left to gain. Suddenly thoughts of death, Control my every move, And every battle with my mind, I always seem to lose. I no longer want to be around, the people that I love, all that I can think about, is what’s waiting above. I cut my arms with razor blades, to dull the pain inside, but that can only last so long, I don’t want to be alive. I manage to keep my composure, when people are around, they wouldn't understand me, so I don't make a sound. I smile when I have to, I break down when I don't, I know I should be strong, But I also know I won't. So I make a plan to take some pills, It shouldn't take too long, I write notes to all my friends, To read when I’m gone. I ask my mom to understand, that life is just too hard. My mind can't fight it anymore, my heart is just too scarred. I plan it out so perfectly, I even set the date, I'm pretty sure I'm ready, I know this is my Fate. My bed is made up neatly, as I take them one by one, I start to feel a little scared, I know I'm almost done. All that I can’t think about, Is how I'm letting go, And how much I love my family, I really hope they know. My eyes are getting heavy, my body feels so weak, everything inside is numb, that’s the way it has to be. I'm glad my mom’s not here right now, to watch me slowly die, But I still wish I could say: "I love you and Good-bye". I give into the darkness, I slowly slip away, I hope I go to Heaven, Where dark night turns to day. I wake up in confusion, I don't know where I am, Is this heaven or is it hell?...The land of eternally Damned, There are people all around, Although I can barely see, I can hear the soothing voices, Of the people dear to me. My family and friends are here, comforting one another, I can hardly make out any words, until I hear my mother. Each tear she cries feels like a knife, stabbing into my soul, I let my pain and suffering, blind me from my goal. At one point I was determined, to make it through this test, to lead a life of fulfilment, and do my very best. But I somehow lost all sight of that, I hope she can forgive, I promise not to waste, my second chance to live. I sit up in my hospital bed, Tears streaming down my cheeks, my mother rushes over crying, like she hasn't seen me in weeks. I tell her I'm sorry, for causing her so much strife, I tell her that I will succeed, in leading a better life. Together we figured out a way, for me to get some help, I know now I can go to her, Instead of doing it by myself. I know that it’s not over yet; it’s a long road up ahead, but I appreciate the little things, because I could be dead. I've learned to live each passing day, As if it were my last, I look forward to the future, And I'm learning from my past.” Rachael Bennett, Learning From My Past.

“I don't want to be another statistic, some suicidal teen, who makes the choice to kill herself, when the world just seems to mean. She can't go with life, or so to her it seems, Reality has fallen short, and so have many dreams. I don't want to be another statistic, some girl left in the rain, who was walking home from school, then raped and left in pain. She can't tell her parents, and it hurts to tell her friends, she doesn't know what she'll do, to make this nightmare end.” Amanda Parmenter, Another Statistic.

“I lay awake for hours, Trying not to cry, I don't know what to think anymore, I wish that I could die. But then I think again, do I really want to die?”

“We hold on to things the tightest, when we are forced to let them go, we always want things a certain way, when we know they can't be so. Dreams always last the longest, when they are furthest from our reach, And the lessons we can learn the most from, are often the very ones we teach. The grass is always the greenest, when it lies on the other side, And the truths we preach to others, are often those we can't abide.” Kristy Glassen, It’s Just The Way We Are.

“‘This is the worst day of my life,’ she says casually, as she has a million plus times before. She slams the door of her room, blocking the outside world, the chaos, and her parents. Everything is always going wrong, and there's nothing she can do.
‘Leave me alone!’ she yells, not really talking to anyone in particular. She draws in a deep breath. She inhales her troubles, her sorrows, her secrets. She exhales nothing, all of her feelings stay locked inside. She keeps them close until they consume, her soul slowly-bit by bit. Her angry music blasts loudly, heard down the street. But she doesn't care. She is only concerned with her troubles, and she can't seem to get them out of her mind. They stay there eating away her other thoughts. Jumping onto her bed and burying her head, into the covers as deep as they can go, she looks back on her day, sighs, and gets ready for tomorrow.” Jenny Sharaf, Just One Of Those Days.
