Story Behind The Song
There have been times in my life when i had thought about suicide. One night, i came home from a night out at a club to find my roommate and best friend out on the roof balcony with a 38. He had called and talk to his girlfriend at the time, and she had came from the club with some of here friends. I had to get everyone to leave, and talk him down while thinking to myself that i wouldn't blame him if he did it.

Lyrics
From the bottom of my heart from the bottom of a pit
To the mind from the soul this is real what you get
From the bottom of the soul
This is real what you get
And you?re my friend for life right
This is for life right
And I?m gonna blow it away
Gun on my tongue steerin the wheel today (this life)
I?m gonna blow it away
Up on the roof to get it done
One more look from as high as I ever was
Brent the guns on my tongue
And what have I done to feel this way
What have I done to feel this way
What have I done
(Chorus)
Just stopped to watch a world go by
And I know I can cut out anytime right?
I just need to know I have control right?
Of my own, of my own, life right?
Man I don?t know
Come down look at the crowd
We?ll go back home and drink on some Boone?s alone
You don?t want to do this here with the gun all these people are scared
Man I know how you feel (this life)
And I?ll be with you until your ready to leave for real
I wouldn?t be here either if it wasn?t for this
Wouldn?t blame you if you choose to end it all at one time
Instead of doing it piece by piece like most people all of their lives
I don?t want you to leave
But I?m selfish to
I just can?t stand to deal with these people without you
(Chorus)
Just stopped to watch a world go by
And I know I can cut out anytime right?
I just need to know I have control right?
Of my own, of my own, life right?
No way
No way out
Things aren?t always as they seem from the outside
I?m always on the inside
Just tryin to hide (this life)
You say you love me
But I don?t feel what you say
Cause I?m numb
To the world
Oh so numb, to the world
Because I?m numb
