I waited too long to say all the words you needed to hear I stood by and did nothing as you crumbled to the floor Never fully knowing, you were trying to conquer your fears Never finding the light, and always searching for more Your life was never a fairy tale And you never got your happy ending People always expecting you to fail Constantly breaking and bending Enduring the pain like knives to your chest Searching for hope in all the wrong places Deep down inside you knew what was best The answer was never in any of the same faces Torment inside as you try to numb the pain With bottles, pills, and the pipe Like driving a car outside of your lane You began to say "fuck this life, what is all the hype" But you werent given the chance To be happy and free To go in the rain and dance Or sail across the sea Your demons came back Like a thousand rocks tumbling to the ground You fell for the attack Never having time to turn around The heroin hits your vein The peace you feel is surreal It hits you with force like a freight train For a little while, youre allowed to just not feel If only you knew that was never the answer That the end would be here soon Your disease eating away at you like cancer It is only a matter of time before your Spirit leaves this room Our hearts will be shattered And our bodies will crumble like dried flowers in the fall Now we will be broken and battered Leaving no room to be happy, once and for all.
