Why did I?
The long nights
The short days,
The short nights
The long days,
My how the time goes by,
and all that time wasted
when you decided to taste it
but when you tried to leave it
it kept holding on,
“Why did I try it”
you ask yourself
“I should not have played
now I've trapped myself.”
“I've lost my job,
I've lost my family,
I have lost everything
- but my addiction.”
“I'll never be the same
I'll always be square
because I am never around
the ones that I truly care,”
Be careful what you do
and what others ask of you,
Don’t mess around with any drugs
They’ll keep people from giving you a hug
and instead maybe even they’ll give you a mug.
