As a Friend

You don't seek out comfort You just avoid pain The devil's in the details As it drags you away You've struggled with addiction Because it runs in your blood You said that you weren't like this But that just means it's tough It just means it's tough It just means it's tough These things they're not for you It's just substance abuse And as a friend, never again I can't watch you chose, to die I can still hear your voice Like it was yesterday Back when we were friends And no one spoke of death There's a darkness in your heart As it courses through your veins A lifetime in a moment To all be taken away These things they're not for you It's just substance abuse And as a friend, never again I can't watch you chose These things they're not for you It's just substance abuse And as a friend, never again I can't watch you chose, to die You didn't die from suicide But from a troubled mind If I had the time I would have said goodbye I'd come as a friend I'd come as a friend I'd come as a friend I'd come as a friend I'd come as a friend
