we spent our lives in the same little town
everything here always made us feel down
he started drinking and smoking alot
he and one of his friends discovered pot
our friendship slowly drifted apart
Every week he wasn't so smart
he was my best friend, I wanted to hang
he would go out with his drug doing gang
"why don't you ever want to get high"
I Just told him "I'm not that kinda guy"
it was hard for me to resist him
but my life is better off without them
"you're gonna hafta stop living this way"
"it's not gonna hurt me" he'd always say
when I got my license, he got a straw
life with the white stuff makes you very raw
he lied and stoled to buy more drugs
His friends were on the ground acting like slugs
cocaine and herion were his best friends
depresion made him want his life to end
I came and knocked there to say whats up
he was laying down with a broken cup
I was yelling and screaming to wake him
all of the drugs finally got him
all of the times I will never forget
