Its safe to say you're safe to stay
here with me for the rest of days.
Let me fight to hold you tight
to let you know it will be alright.
Dont break away or go astray
the less you try the less delay.
To getting straight you cannot wait
you life is sinking like a weight.

Learn from his mistakes...
The way he lived his life
The bottles not your friend...
And the needle will end your life.

Cant you see it aint up to me
despite what you think your life's worth living.
To think like this, is ignorant
I wont help you obtain your oasis.
You mean too much to want that rush
to let that poison be your emotions crutch.
So pack it up, ungrasp your clutch
Im saving your life I dont need this fuss.

So how does it feel, two months gone...unreal.
Youve been sober and can see it's real
the effect it had, the effects are bad
Shaking and trembling, still, arent you glad,
That you stopped your death, you took a breath,
took a moment to realize what was best.
So thank his passing when you were crashing
It opened your eyes so you could see you werent lasting.

Youve learned from his mistakes...
and how he lived his life.
You turned around just in time...
And saved me from too much strife.
