I agree too however we generally write about what we are familiar with.

As for the song. I think it's pretty good. I have a problem with "with the bullet in my chamber, i say to you goodbye" Perhaps " As darkness falls upon me, it's time to say goodbye" Reason being it speaks of overdosing and then they shoot themself? Maybe I missed something.

To add to it! You might turn this around by adding say something along the lines of. Someone saving this soul. Say you go along the lines of my above suggestion in the next verse you could go with As things are growing blacker my pulse begins to fade the hand of an angel reaches into my grave. and so on. But the idea is a saved soul and a turn in the impending doom. The song can still be hard and dark but not so negative.

Hey I'm an old guy who has experienced depression in my past. I just don't like to give ideas to those in trouble.
