Tell me what's been happening, what's been on your mind Lately you've been searching for a darker place To hide, that's alright But if you carry on abusing, you'll be robbed from us I refuse to lose another friend to drugs Just come home, don't let go Looking at that family, it was the perfect home A loving wife, 2 beautiful kids, heir to his throne Secure job, 50k a year, happiness and trips to Rome All go swimmingly 'til he was chucked in at the deep end though Boss at work pleaded and needed him to do extra work At first it was fine, then the problems came in and they began to lurk To make sure deadlines met, still up at 4 am, he quenches his first With a bottle of Jack, the only thing keeping him up is this 30 perc At first it was only one, didn't seem a big deal, eventually it got worse Got worse, one night he collapsed asleep, woke up, morning, feeling the worst Boss told him he failed again, he'll find another job, soon a clerk So he's up the next night, to make sure he kept going, drops a second perc And quickly 2 became 3, 3 to 4, 4 to 5, these pills began to flirt His behaviour became erratic; he had knocked himself up off his perch Cracked out, 'posed he developed a habit, cause he just dropped two pills at work And at this point he had lost himself and no patrol was on the search Tell me what's been happening, what's been on your mind Lately you've been searching for a darker place To hide, that's alright But if you carry on abusing, you'll be robbed from us I refuse to lose another friend to drugs Just come home, don't let go 28 hours in a row he's been awake now, he's struggling to concentrate now Work are getting annoyed, the deadlines met but he makes mistakes now Other day put a glass to Tony's throat, he's been put on break now At home all day, only thing to get by some Percs he'll take now But this is where it gets twisted, though this is no beautiful fantasy His brain's all mashed up now, in fact he's bordering insanity The other day, he heard his daughter using a profanity The vanity of his actions, can't describe it, it was brutality Left his daughters face black and blue, blacker than a cavity His wife had took the kids and moved away, moot inhumanity He took one looked at himself and he knew he needed to be clean, knew he needed rehab 3 months clean, the kids are back, but that's when he would relapse No déjà vu, up at 3 am, it was the same song and dance This would be the last straw; his wife was not to give a chance Struggling with the finance, kids had left and now there's no romance Tell me what's been happening, what's been on your mind Lately you've been searching for a darker place To hide, that's alright But if you carry on abusing, you'll be robbed from us I refuse to lose another friend to drugs Just come home, don't let go Recalling the fear on the face of his kids when he balled a fist The horror, despair, the face of his wife - at the end of his Life, one night before bed, he made a cocktail, Percs, Ambien and meds for pain, it was not no Happy cocktail, no party vibe, it was deadly this was no purple rain Woke up, eyes kept blacking out, room spinning, walls blooded Roof blooded, fell out of bed, got up, walked, stumbled, thudded Couldn't walk straight, blood out his eyes as if the room was flooded He managed to get to the bathroom, collapsed on the floor, he had deducted This was it, as he fought to keep his eyes open, he simply couldn't As the room still saturated red, but slowly getting dimmer and dimmer He realised this could be it, couldn't move, he knew he'd been a sinner His eyes opened again, ears don't work, see's his daughters crying He couldn't believe, 34 years on this planet for nothing, health declining There's no point learning from you mistakes when it's already far too late This is no Cinderella, no happy ending and he had to accept his fate Tell me what's been happening, what's been on your mind Lately you've been searching for a darker place To hide, that's alright But if you carry on abusing, you'll be robbed from us I refuse to lose another friend to drugs Just come home, don't let go
