Please God Change

Years ago I met you from afar
You had a toxic glow
And I can still remember
The sounds you made
And the warm embrace
That you gave the stage
I was fifty rows away
Looking on, wondering how
I could be there too
And now you’re my friend
I see you all the time
We talk about this life
And I don’t wanna find you dead on the floor
Please God change!
Tales of loss have plagued you everyday
Suffocating thoughts
I don’t dare pretend to know a thing
About your constant pain
The hunger in your veins
The mushroom cloud of blood that
Tucks you in to a warmer place
One that you’ll regret but only after tasting
Total peace, feeling always missed
One that closes your eyes
Maybe for the last time
And now you’re my friend
I see you all the time
We talk about this life
And I don’t wanna find you dead on the floor
Please God change!
There’s nothing I can do To make you feel the truth
Of all you stand to lose
If you decay to use
Oh please God change!
