lyrics

A basement prison
His jail cell the couch
A spell of depression
Keeps the light out
Poisoning silence
Lonely he waits
For nothing
how long will this take

I don’t know why I feel ashamed
Every time I hear his name
Make excuses place blame
Even though he chose to be this way

He comes up laughing
Suddenly life is great
Bitter delusions
The manic overtakes
He cuffs the night and
Curses the day
The man I knew
Is gone without a trace

I don’t know why I feel ashamed
Every time I hear his name
Make excuses place blame
Even though he chose to be this way

He’s failed me before, he’ll fail me again
Refuse my help time and again
He reaches hell so I’m forced to walk away
And accept, he chose to be this way
