Dope Lives

I remember like it's yesterday
And I remember when that phone rang
No one even had to say a thing
Three days ago we planned to hang
I could already feel you gone
You had moved on
In the car, no music no songs
Your body laying there cool and calm
Ring in your hand, on your knees
Smoothest mother fucker that I'd ever see
Life of the party, fresh to death
Dared to fail until your last breath
That's all done now, you skipped town
Man I hope you're proud, I wrote this for you, play it extra loud
Left us in broke pieces
Yeah you left me speechless
And now I'm bitter as shit
'Cus I can barely crack a smile when I get to reminisce
She was shy of a widow
None of us will really know
Things have never been the same
And that was Valentines Day

There's no bringing him back
There's no bringing him back
There's no bringing him back
There's no bringing him back
There's no bringing him back
There's no bringing him back
There's no bringing him back
There's no bring
There's no bringing him back
There's no bringing him back
There's no bringing him back
There's no bringing him back
There's no bringing him back
There's no bringing him back
There's no bringing him back
There's no bringing him back

I remember like it's yesterday
When my phone rang again
Is it good news or bad news?
Another man's life has come to an end
Now I'll never get closure
Stand eye to eye with that junky mother fucker
Ask what happened one day to the other
Three days out and you couldn't keep him sober?
Lost my chance to do anything
Yell, scream, laugh, lash out or cry
Let go of many years of pain
Watch the life fade from his eyes
Too bad it doesn't matter now
Yeah, they both skipped town
Cold and gone without a sound
Fall like ashes scattered to the ground
