You Can’t Save People

You pick it up, hit the pipe

Snort your line,

Hit the wall

That’s my queue

I’ve seen it all

How long does your high last?

Does it take away your sorrows?

Does it take away your pain?

Because I’m pretty sure that the only thing it is taking

Is your brain.

You can’t make decisions on your own,

so you do what you know best

You suck people in

with your deception and lies,

and expect the best

But you have to be the one this time

Because we can’t forget

All of the time you’ve left us-

It’s just stuck in my head.
