If you’ve done as I, and paid the cost.

When you’ve been as high as me.

After you have gained, all that I have lost.

Only then, you too might see.

When you’ve  nothing left to lose.

After every thing is gone.

Then it’s too late, for you to choose.

The path, you should have been on.

Through all of the lying.

Being sick for many years.

The times you thought you were dying.

And you’ve shed too many tears.

When an addiction controls your life.

And becomes your only friend.

Cost you, your home, kids and wife.

Maybe it’s time, for it to end.

If you have to choose.

Should I eat or get high?

Weather its drugs or booze.

It’s differently time to try.

Do you hear what I’m saying?

Is any of this, getting into your head?

If you don’t stop delaying.

Before long, you’ll be dead…
