Yesterday I found a faded photo in the bottom of a drawer
The kid that's in that picture, he don't
Grace us with his smiling face no more
I saw him on that day so long ago, he told me everything was fine
Yeah, take a good long look around this
Place, tell me what's not a warning sign
Whoa
It wasn't the addictions that was kicking you around
It wasn't the restrictions that the world was giving down
Well, some of it's always soft, fast, and stylish in this town
And everybody gets to make a choice, this is my way
Try to picture where you'd be today
Can't see you in the present tense
I think about that place you disappeared to, man, and why I never went
They say the darkest part of night is always right before the dawn
Wish you'd been able to see through, wish you'd been able to hold on
Whoa
It wasn't the addictions that was kicking you around
It wasn't the restrictions that the world was giving down
Well, some of it's always soft, fast, and stylish in this town
And everybody gets to make a choice, this is my way
Soon the clouds will break, the sun
Will cast its light on the fallen ones
And all the pain they see will disappear
Soon the clouds will break, my son, sins cast aside, new days begun
And it's sickest heart to take over the years
I remember one time, think it was your
Birthday, got so high we couldn't see
Then we got shot at in that parking
Lot, left here, we couldn't breathe
I wish that stupid shit had meant to you just what it meant to me
I hope you finally found what you were
Looking for, I guess I'll wait and see
It wasn't the addictions that was kicking you around
It wasn't the restrictions that the world was giving down
Well, some of it's always soft, fast, and stylish in this town
And everybody gets to make a choice, this is my way
It wasn't the addictions that was kicking you around
It wasn't the restrictions that the world was giving down
Well, some of it's always soft, fast, and stylish in this town
And everybody gets to make a choice, this is my way
