E

You're already dead
You're already dead
So long my new friend
'Cause you're already dead
Addiction took you away
Now my heart aches
Tears stream down my face
Happy memories bring pain

I want it all back
The way it was in those days
The dreams that we shared
Have all been erased
Your life falls down the drain
Such talent to waste
Such brilliance enslaved
And you can't be saved

You can't be saved
You can't be saved
You refuse to save yourself
I wish you'd hear my plea, E
And ask for my help
