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.
