Drinking drugs divorce and death

by Jacob Perry   Mar 12, 2006


Empty faces stare me down
as my world revolves around
as people scream and people cry
the people i love die inside

the hate from a marriage
the pain of divorce
if fifty percent fail
then why bother start?

"i dont ever want to feel the way i did that day"
that describes it pretty good
they say its for love
but then turn around and shoot the peace dove...

i sit thinking it all over
cant even sleep
cant even find it in myself to be sober
all i can do is sit here and weep...

music blares while the sisters cry
the father stops and then he flys
the mother dies and follows her son
this family is NOT the pain of just one

so hes burried and away is his pain
he lies in a coffin
as the crowd weeps
the pain of a young life
through it doth seep...

broken and torn
the family does die
as if life was real in first place
we all will die
