Wasted

Once again it's Friday night
They say take a few shots it'll be alright
So he brings it up to his mouth
Silence becomes noise and the quiet is loud
Now its 2 am and he’s driving home
Friends in the backseat so they’re not alone
Make a left turn and the lights too bright
He sees it coming but he can’t fight
One hour later and he’s all on the floor
Just told they can’t bring her back anymore

CHORUS:
Thought the drinks wouldn’t make him lost
Never knew that life was the price it would cost
Saw one chance out so he took it and ran
Swears right now to never do it again
But he was 18 and invincible
He swore he’d never let himself go
Had a hold on himself but not on life
If he’d had it right she wouldntve died that night

Now it’s rearranged his whole life
No one not even him knows what’s going on inside
They tell lies, but that was his best friend
And he’s the boy who let her life come to an end
Two weeks in and his parents kicked him out
With all the talk they didn’t want him around
So he leaves the city to find someplace else
But the memory follows him in every house
Starts to get inside and drives him insane
Every friend he had they just went away

Chorus

It all crashed down on that Saturday
Suddenly all he felt was pain
So he walks, deep in the trees
Taking in his last moments to breathe
Holds the gun up says this one’s for you
Didn’t wait til three he shot at two
He can’t be brought back, just like he wanted
Couldn’t live his life feeling so haunted
All because of six or seven drinks
Could’ve saved two lives had he stopped to think

Chorus

They’re all getting wasted
Hold up your drinks for the faded
They’re all getting wasted
Just hold up your drinks for the
Hold up your drinks for the
Hold them up for the faded
