Pick Your Poison -

Running from yourself left you stranded

And now you’re exactly where you never thought you would be

In the dark without a light to guide you

What once was a breath is now a gasp to survive

You left so much behind, so many questions unanswered

The other side, the crash to the burn

The fingers that picket for your solid satisfaction

Belong to the hands wrapped around your neck so tight

You live today without a care

Tomorrow will come and I’ll still be here

I gave myself to you and you left me with lies

And there will come a time when you have so much

But there’s so little that you can touch

And still I consider you a friend

For every temporary sucker that’s in place that you need

Is another cry for you to return

You’ve been there, you’ve been square but nothing in between

Now it’s time to find those who are looking for you tonight

You live today without a care

Tomorrow will come and I’ll still be here

I gave myself to you and you left me with lies

And there will come a time when you have so much

But there’s so little that you can touch

And still I consider you a friend

It’s hard to accept

But there’s people that don’t care

In a world so cold

And they seem unfair

But you’ve got to realize you have a purpose

And it’s not through your nose that you can see the light

When I was scared you picked me up

You told me never to forget that I’ll be there by your side

So here I am, we’ve gone too far

And it’s been a long time since we’ve been at peace

We followed a part but I still know

That behind the mask is a familiar face, it’s you

You live today without a care

Tomorrow will come and I’ll still be here

I gave myself to you and you left me with lies

And there will come a time when you have so much

But there’s so little that you can touch

And still I consider you a friend
