Today I sat and tried my best to think.
If it could end your life why would you drink?
I wish I knew how to change your mind.
Life is too precious to leave it all behind....
There I am standing looking in the mirror, tears rolling down my face,
thinking, 'Why is it that this world is all going wrong? Is it the human race?,
Is this world meant for people to...

Thinking of you, I become obsessed.
Because of you my life is in ruins, my life a big mess.
Most days I can't even get out of bed to get dressed.
Those crazy thoughts lingering, in my brain....

One breath, one moment. First step, first smoke. We start out young. Innocent, unknowing. Yet as we grow, we learn. Learn of good and bad. The ways of the evil.
One more time you say. That's all it is, yet you said that same line last time. One more drink you say, then we'll go home. It all seemed fine, and your friends didn't mind.
