Old Friends & New Drugs

from Musical Identity Crisis by L. Mounts

/

lyrics

Haven't seen my friends in a month or two
Haven't known a damn thing of what they've been doing
But it turns out that it's all the same
Kinds of things that caused them to leave me
Out in the dust and mess up my breathing
I wish it wasn't the case

That some of them think that you are overreacting
Some of them think it doesn't affect you at all
Some of them don't even notice what you're feeling
'Cause you've lost half of them to drugs and alcohol

It's hard to be nice to the people you thought
Would always have your back and wouldn't judge you at all
When they're out late getting smashed
You think it's all fine, you think it's okay
You think it's just a plain ride on the city train
Until they pull out the the brash

Little tin containing tiny metal pieces
Wondering just what they hell they are
Never thought they would go try psychedelics
Can't believe you've lost them to anything at all

It's a shame, damn shame what they've become
It's a shame, damn shame what they've done
It's a shame, damn shame never thought they'd leave
It's a shame, damn shame who they're gonna be

Haven't seen my friends in a day or two
And I'm still concerned about what they're doing
But they want me to back off
There's only one person who had the care
To keep me around and always be there
And make sure I stayed calm

Whenever things were going down in my life
Whenever I needed something he would be around
Forever I'll be disappointed in those I've lost
But maybe it's for the better, and who know knows if they'll ever
Turn their life around
