my friend forgot how to dance
he never had a chance
against the pills that don't help
him to remember what he felt
before the mess that drains

my friend forgot how to blink
now he just cries and thinks
about the weird world
he stands and tears just roll down his face
oh the mess he dreams
his own little mess that screams his name

you still have time
to get out
to snap out

my friend forgot how to shave
once he couldn't have stand the pain
but he doesn't feel it now
he'd like to feel it but he don't know how
only the mess that drains
lonely little mess that screams his name

you still have time
to sleep it off
to shake off
