[Verse 1]
In MLA and 12 point font
My awards are all in order and my references are pretty strong
My bullet points concise and now my grammar's fixed and typos found
I'm hopin' if she sees it I have made my English teacher proud
And I've done my share of charity
I know he's a busy guy and probably won't remember these
The omnipotent editor knows all the tricks by now I'm sure
But first impressions stick, so I am leading with my best foot first
So now I wait for the response
Is it too late to call it off?
[Chorus]
I didn't know I had an answer for this question 'till I asked
But now that I am set in motion all I want's a second chance
Take it back
[Verse 2]
And I'm flinching as I check the mail
And flip through bills and grocery sales
I throw out all the clutter, understand that it can't help me now
But there it is, I've finally heard
'Cause in my hands: the holy word
The envelope is gold and it's addressed to "whom it may concern"
And I’m too scared
To look inside
But nothing now can change at all the contents of this envelope
It's best I get this over with, 'cause ignorance won't save my soul
And I read the words one at a time
But can't get past the leading line
"Your application's been denied"
[Chorus]
Didn't know I had an answer for this question 'till I asked
But now that I may never have it, all I want's a second chance
Take it back
[Verse 3]
"Your application's been denied
We can't accept you at this time
We'll keep your paperwork on file
We'll reach back out when it's your time"
"We know that life can seem so cruel
That's why today is just too soon
You still have so much left to do
The world's not ready to lose you"
"So many lives to still impact
Some still have yet to cross your path
We know that it's a lot to ask
Please learn your worth, and take it back
[Outro]
Now he’s wondering why he’s doing it and starts to doubt If he really wants to go all the way.
Now he’s starting to freak out because he instantly regrets trying to kill himself. He’s not sure he can stop it now, but he wants to. He wants to stay alive.
In the end the person trying to end his life understands the worth of living and changes his mind and lives on. ||| Your Life is important, sometimes life may get so hard to resist but keep living and once a Wise man said – “If you stay alive, good things are bound to happen”

These lines continue speaking from the perspective of God returning and denying the writer’s “Application of Suicide”.
Impacting other people’s lives is one of the strongest things humans can do, especially considering the idea of existentialism. When it feels like nothing matters because death is imminent, remembering that you have the power to change people’s lives is such an important thing to hold onto.
Being told with confirmation from a higher power that you have purpose, meaning, and an impact on the lives of people around you isn’t something to take lightly. It could even be an inspiration to stay alive, which is exactly what the application denial is trying to do.
12 point font is standard size for most academic papers. It’s equivalent to 1/6 of an inch.
MLA (Modern Language Association) style is most commonly used to write papers and cite sources within the liberal arts and humanities.
The writer of this application is trying to make sure everything is in order and everything is perfect, as everything needs to be.
It makes sense that you’d want to perfect your application, as if you apply to something, the end goal is to be accepted.
But in addition, with the idea he is applying to die, it makes even more sense that the writer would want it to be perfect.
If it’s the last thing he’s creating or doing in the material world, he needs it to be perfect.
This could also be seen as an attempt to prolong his life. When battling with suicide, your brain is at a constant war. While you want to die, something inside your deep subconscious is trying to keep you alive.
So while he is writing this out, continuing to make adjustments so that everything lines up perfect, it’s prolonging his eventual fate, even if only for a few moments.
Any English teacher would be proud that a student was following MLA guidelines.
The name doesn’t matter because everyone in the world has value and is important to someone else.
Here the god is trying to convey that, Life can be so cruel but it is not right to jump to the conclusion so fast, there’s a lot left in your life, you will meet so many lives and will impact them, you will god to so many different places, and a lot of other things are still waiting to be done by you, so the world is not really to lose you and thus this is not the time for your life to end [yet]
The person in the song is trying to commit suicide.
it is still the god talking, and he’s saying that he knows it is a lot to ask, and that life is so hard that ending it seems more convenient than living it hopelessly, but it is important to learn your worth, your importance, and that you will do things that will impact the world. So, take it back. which means don’t try to end your life anymore, and LIVE
This seems like God telling him that it isn’t the time for him to die yet.
It seems as though he tried to commit suicide by taking something, as he’s now waiting for it to start having an effect.
His applicattion being denied means that he wasn’t sucessful at his suicide attempt.
This might be litteraly happening, his eyes refocus and open wide as he regains conscience.
I think he might be losing consience after having taken whatever it was he took.
Again, this is him realizing this might be the end and he is now terrified.
It reminds a lot of the poem “The View from Halfway Down” from an episode of Netflix TV show BoJack Horseman, which, largely surrounds the final moments of a suicidal Secretariat, having jumped off the George Rogers Clark Memorial Bridge and realizing that he wanted to live but that living was no longer an option “halfway down.”
Here’s a link for the poem:
(poem)As he reflects on his life choices, he hopes God takes in consideration the good he’s done and not the bad.
