He was my best friend
He was my best friend
I tried to help him
I tried to help him
But he traded everything for suffering
But he traded everything for suffering
And found himself alone
And found himself alone
I watched the lying turn into hiding
I watched the lying turn into hiding
With scars on both his lips
With scars on both his lips
His fingertips were melted to the bone
His fingertips were melted to the bone
But I can still remember
But I can still remember
What his face looked like
What his face looked like
When I found him in an alley
When I found him in an alley
In the middle of the night
In the middle of the night
Tell me what you know
Tell me what you know
Tell me what you're gone and done now
Tell me what you're gone and done now
Tell me what you know
Tell me what you know
Tell me what you've gone and done now
Tell me what you've gone and done now
A gun would do the trick
A gun would do the trick
To get it over with
To get it over with
You're better off
You're better off
To take all that you got
To take all that you got
N' Burn it on the spot
N' Burn it on the spot
Just to get high, high, high, high
Just to get high, high, high, high
3 days no sleeping
3 days no sleeping
He gave up eating
He gave up eating
He sold his mother's rings
He sold his mother's rings
She said stealing
She said stealing
And pretended not to know
And pretended not to know
He started stealing
He started stealing
To supply the feeling
To supply the feeling
Found out he puppled a knife
Found out he puppled a knife
On someone's wife
On someone's wife
And held it to her throat
And held it to her throat
But I can still remember
But I can still remember
What his face looked like
What his face looked like
When I found him in an alley
When I found him in an alley
In the middle of the night
In the middle of the night
Tell me what you know
Tell me what you know
Tell me what you're gone and done now
Tell me what you're gone and done now
Tell me what you know
Tell me what you know
Tell me what you've gone and done now
Tell me what you've gone and done now
A gun would do the trick
A gun would do the trick
To get it over with
To get it over with
You're better off
You're better off
To take all that you got
To take all that you got
N' Burn it on the spot
N' Burn it on the spot
Just to get high, high, high, high
Just to get high, high, high, high
Tell me what you did
Tell me what you did
Where you got it hid
Where you got it hid
Show me
Show me
Is what you really want
Is what you really want
Watching what you're got
Watching what you're got
Slowly
Slowly
Circling the Drain
Circling the Drain
Thrown it all away
Thrown it all away
Just to get high, high, high, high
Just to get high, high, high, high
Tell me what you know
Tell me what you know
Tell me what you're gone and done now
Tell me what you're gone and done now
Tell me what you know
Tell me what you know
Tell me what you've gone and done now
Tell me what you've gone and done now
A gun would do the trick
A gun would do the trick
To get it over with
To get it over with
You're better off
You're better off
To take all that you got
To take all that you got
N' Burn it on the spot
N' Burn it on the spot
Just to get high, high, high, high
Just to get high, high, high, high
Tell me what you did
Tell me what you did
Where you got it hid
Where you got it hid
Show me
Show me
Is what you really want
Is what you really want
Watching what you've got
Watching what you've got
Slowly
Slowly
Circling the drain
Circling the drain
Throw it all away
Throw it all away
Just to get high, high, high, high
Just to get high, high, high, high
Just to get high, high, high, high
Just to get high, high, high, high
Circling the drain
Circling the drain
Throw it all away
Throw it all away
Just to get high, high, high, high
Just to get high, high, high, high
