Lost A Friend To Comatose (ft. @bandofsorrows)

[Intro] I lost my friend to comatose And they don't see anyone But a fool who overdosed They don't see the pain The pain They were acting like they're all perfect When we all have our own ways To cope with our pain Equally as destructive Only not taboos You get a notch in your belt While he gets a final breath A life stops breathing While they keep on living [Verse 1] And they say things like.... "He's a mistake to society, anyway", "He wasn't going to make it in this place", "Just a burden", "just a flaw, in the system", 'Cause he didn't fit your image right... Of what it means, to fit your design A "perfect guy" While others were given free rides He was struggling with suicide! The heavy depression inside No therapist to confide Take 2 of mama's pills To cope with this, Life But he took 1, too many Yeah, never woke up A family of ten friends, not blood A forced fate... Never aloud, To see him again [Chorus] I lost my friend to comatose They don't see anyone But a fool who overdosed They don't see the pain, The pain All be acting like they're all perfect When we all have our own ways To cope with our pain Equally as destructive, Only not taboos [Verse 2 - Threnos Lullaby] You only saw the ending Never what it took to get there Every night he disappeared in Every time nobody cared You call it weakness from a distance Like pain should leave a mark Like you would've recognised it If he'd worn it on his arms But everybody has a doorway They reach for when they break Some disappear behind a smile Some work until they fade So tell me where you draw the line Between surviving and a sin You judged him by the way he fell Never how long he'd been standing [Alt-Chorus] I lost my friend to comatose They don't see anyone But a fool who overdosed They don't see the pain [Bridge] When society doesn't see the pain And just chooses to look away Monopolize, don’t prioritize What, they need, Instead... Hope is dead, when it's not given They give us stresses, Give us less than Could help other lives, ease their pain But they give us more grief instead Just take away, abuse, leave us with nothing At that 9 to 5, while they live high in this life And you probably could of helped to save my friend If you took a few zeroes... Off the end of your paycheck [Final-Chorus] I lost my friend to comatose They don't see anyone But a fool who overdosed They don't see the pain, The pain All be acting like they're all perfect When we all have our own ways To cope with our pain Equally as destructive To ease the pain Hope you're ok 'Cause..., I Lost..., A friend Since comatose Can't ease the pain
