You and I


You live your life day by day and yet you continue to wither away A shot here, a puff there is it getting you anywhere Who do you think you'll become just another angry boy in the slums You see yourself as in full bloom but you know it affects us to Have you even thought about how it affects us all when your out there feeling so tall When your getting high with your friends and abandoning us yet again I wish you could see how it affects me Have you even thought about if its worth it all as you continue to fall I know you'll miss out on life's real pleasures as you obsess over your so called treasures Your lifes turn into a real lean It's turned into something absolutely obscene Have you thought about the past when all life's greatness seemed to last I miss those days when you and I used to play I was so small and i thought you were so tall What happened to those days when I looked up to you But your actions have proved to make me so blue I Hate what you became and now spending time with us has became to lame But now its all the same and your the only one to blame I Wish You Would Change But even that has become to much for you to endore that you've proved to be so sure I Wish You Would Stop Maby then we could throw out all are emotions and feelings and discover life's new meaning We love you, we trully do But we cannot continue to live are life this way
