The substances are killing us and we're blind
To the failed state of mind
taking over, weakened
Suicidal medication in our blood
I'm a victim and it’s killing us
Couldn't even listen
I don't know how to say it to you
when I can’t even help myself
I battled my own use, know it's the cold truth
I don’t want us to end up on the shelf
Needle to your vein
killing like a pill to your brain
Needle to your vein
Promise you'll walk the path
do you still care
Promise you'll walk the path, who am I now?
I don't know how to say it to you
when I can't even help myself
I battled my own use, know it’s the cold truth
I don't want us to end up on the shelf

I lost my friend, myself, and my lover
I lost my friend, myself, and my lover
I lost my friend, myself, and my brother
I lost my friend, myself, and my lover
I lost my friend, myself
and my brother to the poison

I don't know how to say this to you
when I can't even help myself
I battled my own use, know it's the cold truth
I don't want us to end up on the shelf
