Tony, your life's not over,
|
but you've given up all you lived for.
|
Put the bottle down and fix the thing you ran from.
|
Do you say what you really mean?
|
Are you really how you're perceived to be?
|
If the lights go out tomorrow,would you know?
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
I don't wanna call your family and tell them to build a coffin,
|
because their oldest son just overdosed on pills.
|
You've got a red glare in your eyes,
|
and the sky outside your door's a blacker blue.
|
I hate to see what's become of you.
|
|
Tony, it's just a stick in the spokes.
|
It's not too late for you to find your way home,
|
because your friends are still here,
|
and your family's where you left them.
|
So put on a clear head and try it out for a ride,
|
because you're better than this and you can better your life.
|
You can't choose your father,
|
we're suffering together.
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
You're getting closer to the end of your rope.
|
I never thought you'd let yourself get so cold.
|
But lately I've been thinking about the things I said to you,
|
and now I need to prove that
|
I didn't mean it when I said, that you were dead to me.
|
You mean the world to me.
|
|
[Chorus]
|
