The Right Thing

Let's take a journey back a year

To the time where we started this career

No person to love, nobody to lust 

Nobody there to break your trust

Think back to our friend, the one who's been there

The one who was when nobody cared

Who helped you walk to get where you are

Who broke down in tears in the quiet of your car

Picture the words picture the lies

Picture the hurt picture those eyes

Relationship failing the family is bailing 

The weight has been measured to much to be scaling

Get wrapped in the ego buy a pint of gin

Drink til the drool drips down your chin

You walk and you talk back to your room

The support that they give feels weak and with gloom

You lie on your back and you feel a hard smack

A forceful press of the lips as you start to lose grip

Your hand has been taken, no sense of control

You freeze as you think of the person you stole

Guilt fears your soul, hurt fills the hole

You try not think as your friendship sinks 

Do you tell their lover? Do you hold it all in?

You don't you just play along with a grin

In fear of this sin this stabbing pin

Patience is running thin and you feel guilt taking over again

You know it's your fault, you could have fought back

But you went along with it as your thoughts fell to black

Just because liquor was a factor in this hap

Doesn't make you feel any less like crap
