Yeah, I'm sitting, contemplating, thinking bout the time I wasted
Drinking, sipping, getting faded taking pills to feel sedated
Whipping round in the civic, yeah I think we overplayed it
Turned a night into a hobby, spending most our money drinking
Then them flashing lights came blinking, and I helped you off the floor
Open casket, I decided this can't be my life no more
Never feeling like I fit in with the people in this room
Getting sober's one of the hardest things I ever had to do
How do all these people get it, and I'm left out in the rain?
I don't understand, it seems so effortless for them to breathe
Every time I take a breath I swear it might just be my last
Every day it just gets harder, that's why I live in the past
Miss the days when I was younger, I could sit around and laugh
Nowadays I just wonder if I'll end up going back
Lost some friends to the drugs, and a couple to the bottle
But the shit that hurt the most, is all the lost potential
Yeah
All this time
We spent drinking, doing drugs
Wasting time
I hate the person I've become
This ain't life
The drugs will never be enough
Think it's time
We make it cool to give em up
All this time
We spent drinking, doing drugs
Wasting time
I hate the person I've become
This ain't life
The drugs will never be enough
Think it's time
We make it cool to give em up
Now it's back to the parting, acting like nothing's wrong
Like we didn't find his body laying in his bed cold
Yeah it's just another friend that got dead too young
So pour out some bottle and take some smoke in your lungs
Saying "This one's for the homie. Wish he was here getting drunk"
Then go back to the party and talk about who he was
And well explaining the person that your friend used to be
Yeah just try to envision and put yourself in their seat
You think they thought they'd be the one that was gonna OD?
Yeah probably not so why don't you go get yourself clean
And if you won't do it for you then go and do it for them
Why don't you do it for the friend that you can't see again
Cause the lifestyle that got him it might come for you next
So put that bottle down I bet that they'd be way more impressed
Cause they don't want the same for you, and I promise you this
Even though it's times like this when you need it the most
All this time
We spent drinking, doing drugs
Wasting time
The drugs will never be enough
I think it's time
We make it cool to give em up.
