I had a friend named Victor |
[00:33.540] |
The two of us used to hang every single day |
[00:35.700] |
And it seemed like overnight that his whole life just changed |
[00:38.660] |
I know when his mom and dad broke up |
[00:40.690] |
It didnt make sense but I know that his dad was a drunk |
[00:43.160] |
And he gambled away the rent |
[00:44.530] |
Pretty soon vic was seein red |
[00:46.310] |
Pissed off but instead |
[00:47.770] |
He drank every night til he passed out |
[00:49.540] |
Then he’d do it all again |
[00:50.770] |
The whole time smiling on the outside to cover the pain |
[00:53.350] |
But on the inside all he was tryin to do was get away |
[00:56.290] |
|
[00:56.770] |
Dying to get away |
[00:59.970] |
Let the pain of yesterday go slipping through the cracks |
[01:08.230] |
|
[01:08.800] |
Funny how things change color |
[01:10.700] |
Then fade to another shade |
[01:11.360] |
When you had it made it was all good |
[01:12.830] |
But now look just another day |
[01:14.380] |
It was so fresh it was so clean |
[01:15.830] |
Now its all gone |
[01:16.600] |
1, 2, 3, lights out |
[01:17.820] |
Which way to turn |
[01:18.610] |
Can't get a grip |
[01:19.350] |
All alone in a big white house |
[01:20.890] |
Everyday gets worse and you just curse |
[01:22.600] |
'til your head bursts and it hurts so bad |
[01:24.350] |
She left like yourself should have thought of that one first |
[01:26.650] |
No family, no kids, can’t accept what you did |
[01:29.400] |
Now you wanna runaway but you can't cuz the past comes back again |
[01:32.300] |
|
[01:32.740] |
Slippin through the cracks |
[01:33.670] |
Sip a little jack |
[01:34.410] |
Go to bed half dead |
[01:35.330] |
What about rent |
[01:36.800] |
Why does every cent gotta be a bet |
[01:37.539] |
Whens it gonna end |
[01:38.289] |
Oh my god, we dont got a penny left |
[01:40.600] |
My mom’s gotta find a way to get a job |
[01:41.860] |
Outta debt, outta dodge, outta breath, outta this big problem |
[01:44.420] |
My pops wanna get away from the pain |
[01:46.650] |
In a better place in his brain |
[01:48.100] |
But the medication he takes makes him wasted |
[01:50.550] |
So sick if hes gonna think the good lord would come take him |
[01:53.550] |
Im shakin him wake up you son of a bitch |
[01:56.370] |
|
[01:56.740] |
He’s dying to get away |
[01:59.759] |
Let the pain of yesterday go slipping through the cracks |
[02:08.740] |
Hiding himself away watching all the memories fade |
[02:14.870] |
Away From red to black |
[02:20.430] |
|
[02:20.860] |
He’s dying to get away |
[02:23.810] |
Let the pain of yesterday go slipping through the cracks |
[02:32.800] |
Hiding himself away watching all the memories fade |
[02:38.880] |
Away From red to black |
[02:45.600] |
