Material Things
I've mulled it over and over inside my head
I don't know what drives some friends past the edge
The education or the money or the family fame
I feel let down learning of the drugs to hide the pain
It always seems
The grass is greener with Material Things
From where I stand
Life ain't much sweeter with Material Things
I've heard it again and again through the family vine
Of how heroin drove your life across the line
The old addiction or the remorse or all the shame
Its time for 12 steps back to be clean again
It always seems
The grass is greener with Material Things
From where I stand
Life ain't much sweeter with Material things
Back an forth six times in rehab
Glad to know the very next visit held those demons at bay
Now at home fight off a relapse
Sad to hear the very next victim was your girlfriend today
It always seems
The grass is greener with Material Things
From where I stand
Life ain't much sweeter with Material Things
It always seems
The grass is greener with Material Things
From where I stand
Life ain't much sweeter with Material Things
I don't know what drives some friends past the edge
The education or the money or the family fame
I feel let down learning of the drugs to hide the pain
It always seems
The grass is greener with Material Things
From where I stand
Life ain't much sweeter with Material Things
I've heard it again and again through the family vine
Of how heroin drove your life across the line
The old addiction or the remorse or all the shame
Its time for 12 steps back to be clean again
It always seems
The grass is greener with Material Things
From where I stand
Life ain't much sweeter with Material things
Back an forth six times in rehab
Glad to know the very next visit held those demons at bay
Now at home fight off a relapse
Sad to hear the very next victim was your girlfriend today
It always seems
The grass is greener with Material Things
From where I stand
Life ain't much sweeter with Material Things
It always seems
The grass is greener with Material Things
From where I stand
Life ain't much sweeter with Material Things
