| Songs about NOT committing suicide I am trying to get enough to make a CD, but so far, I don't have very many. These are the ones I have so far: Hold On ~ Good Charlotte Adam's Song ~ Blink 182 Don't Close Your Eyes ~ Kix Everybody Hurts ~ REM I am sure that there are more out there, but I don't know what they are or who sings them. Please help me find some more. __________________ Closed for remodeling | |||

| Jumper by Third Eye Blind and If I Am by Nine Days are really good. The latter isn't explicitly about shaking off suicidal urges though, that's just my own interpretation. But Jumper is very obviously about that. ("Wish you would step back from that ledge, my friend" etcetera etcetera...  )__________________ It's possible to believe in something and still fail to live up to it. *icon by madseason_20 | |||

| Pearl Jam - Jeremy Papa Roach - Last Resort <--- not quite sure if that's anti-suicide enough... it may be construed as glorifying suicide. __________________ Jai guru deva aum. | |||

| Hmm...I see the video for one song but I can't remember the title or artist unfortunately. The guy goes to the roof of a building and it looks like he might jump but then he cries and realizes he shouldn't and dances around happy.  the lyrics I can remember..."I walked to foreign heights, I step to the edge, to see my world below, and I laugh to myself as the tears came down cause its the world I know..." Maybe its called The World I Know?I really hope someone can help me remember this song (I'll put on the song title help thread) but I know it came out around the time of R.E.M.'s Everybody Hurts <-- awesome song btw! The latest in the not committing suicide songs/videos is Linkin Park's Breaking the Habit | |||

| I think Lifehouse's Quasimodo and Jimmy Eat World's The Middle are good choices...they don't explicitly say 'don't commit suicide', but it's celebrating life and stuff like that __________________ go easy on me, I can't help what I'm doing | icon | |||

| Also, Lifehouse's Simon. Like mapraleif said, is doesnt exactly say 'dont commit suicide', but its about being teased and tormented (which came from Jason's own experiances) and how you're not alone, how other people feel that pain too. Its a touching song, probably my favorite Lifehouse song. __________________ ~*~Sam~*~ TC Fan #1 ~ BSBer #2 ~ Lifer #3 | |||

| Any Major Dude Will Tell You by Steely Dan (showing my age) could be extrapolated to have an anti-suicide message. | |||

| "Can't Take That Away"--- Mariah Carey. Once again, it's not like a "don't commit suicide" song, but it's about how you have to love yourself and don't listen when others try to bring you down. Lyrics Here "Dare You to Move"--- Switchfoot. It's more of a 'when life gets hard, just keep going; don't give up' song. Lyrics Here ---Violet :smurf: __________________ Harry and Hermione.
