Now every time you see him there dead black stare well he's been burning
And every time you see him dead in your dreams he's no more he's been snorting
He's almost there give it an hour or two and that dream will come true
Yeah he's been there with nothing to do but watch and let it go no purpose
Yeah I see him he's been dying on the surface trying to find a purpose out of things that have no purpose
He's been dying on the inside every single day fucking up on almost everything he says
He been smoking for so long that it's a habit hard to kill the elephant when he's trying to forget it
Monkey on his back has been nothing but a problem too bad that he's fucked and he'll never get it off him
He's been trying to forget all the mistakes he's made but it's hard when the sickness is etched in your brain
Addiction is nothing but a problem to the family and friends who wanna get it off him fuck him
I don't need him I have myself and I, His fucking sickness does not comply with my mind state I say stay on your own cause you're the only one you can trust from this point on
Yeah he's been burning, burning, he's been burning, He's been burning on the edge of this melody
