He is different And it hurts me to say That he’s not the same anymore It’s like he’s gone away His eyes are bloodshot, And his wrists are cut He’s like a walking zombie And he doesn’t say much I try to get him to talk To let me know how he feels But he always shuts me out This pain is just too real He doesn’t want to live But he doesn’t want to die He likes the hell he lives in And I don’t know why He loves the needle And the pain that comes with it I’ll never understand The pieces just don’t fit What happened to him? The loving boy he used to be Dope is his life now He doesn’t notice me It’s time I move on Cause I can’t watch him die I cannot fight this for him Lord knows I’ve tried I wish him well And I hope he recovers Because no matter what You’ll always be my brother.

Needle over Me
He is different And it hurts me to say That he’s not the same anymore It’s like he’s gone away His eyes are bloodshot, And his wrists are cut He’s like a walking zombie And he doesn’t say much I try to get him to talk To let me know how he feels But he always shuts me out This pain is just too real He doesn’t want to live But he doesn’t want to die He likes the hell he lives in And I don’t know why He loves the needle And the pain that comes with it I’ll never understand The pieces just don’t fit What happened to him? The loving boy he used to be Dope is his life now He doesn’t notice me It’s time I move on Cause I can’t watch him die I cannot fight this for him Lord knows I’ve tried I wish him well And I hope he recovers Because no matter what You’ll always be my brother.
