Textbook Case - With Honor

Are you happy with the way you’re living?

Alone in the dark

Turned your back on the ones who waited for you

While you had gone awry

Always chasing the one who won’t ever run you dry

If you’ve got money, he’s got the time

Cast aside everything you held dear

And now it’s been so long it seems it never was at all

Breaking bottles, all is lost

Your addiction, have a cost

No excuses, I won’t buy in

They’re nothing but lies

Years past, everyday a new face to try on

Discourse as cheap as the highs you ride on

Believe me, I’ve tried to wait patiently, but it’s getting hard

So hard for me not to speak, here’s what I think

You’re everything I never want to be

I hate to see a life so compromised

Potential sold just for a selfish drive

Every waking moment when we fail to change

There are choices made, we must search out life for today

Strength to live life for today
