The Way Some People Die

It wasnt it more than a minute

That first one was the test

He was listening but i dont think he heard the rest

It was easy to fall, but not easy to take a stand

With the sound of her voice or the touch of her hand

Everyones heard the reasons why

A kid would let the poison creep inside

He said he wasn't scared, but you know he lied

The way some people die

He doesnt think of tomorrow

and he seldom looks back

When he did he saw failure

and a future so black

So, he sees himself through sad eyes

That have never caught the look of love

He'll never see what hes giving up

Everyones heard the reasons why

A kid would let the poison creep inside

He said he wasn't scared, but you know he lied

The way some people die

You might think hes a victim

He just thinks its a guess

Its not the question, its who you ask

and the boats fly on friday

and you're never gonna see him again

It wasn't love that did him in

Everyones heard the reasons why

A kid would let the poison creep inside

He said he wasn't scared, but you know he lied

The way some people die
