Impossible Task (Crush,Run! Parties are fun)

We begin our story with her. On that cold slab, waiting for the prognosis. It's not for her, it's for them. It's their fault she's there, they didn't stop it from happening. At any point in time they could have pulled the needle, the money, the spoon from her hands and just held her, she obviously needed someone. It's was an OD, and it wasn't a peaceful death. The second hardest way to die besides being murdered. She knew she was dying and could do nothing about it but lie there. Thses tears aren't for her though, they are for you. You know you caused this, you know you could have stopped it...but you chose fun!

 

 

GRAB THE NEEDLE, ROLL THE MONEY, CRUSH CRUSH CRUSH!!!

THIS IS THE ONLY WAY TO HAVE FUN

THIS IS HOW WE PARTY!!!

RUN RUN RUN RUN RUN RUN

RUN AWAY FROM THE RESPONSIBILITY YOU NOW CARRY!!!

 

She was at your parties, you brought her into this

Now shes gone, she left and it wasn't for the night

She left permanently, She's not on this planet anymore

 

There are times I wish i could go back in time

Go back to when we first met

When we were both attracted to each other

When you saw me for who I could be, and I saw you for who you really were

You were beautiful, fiery, spontaneous, but angelic

I thought you were perfect then, why did you go this direction?

 

 

 

Why did you grab the needle, the pill, the dollar fucking bill?!

Why didn't you think of who you were?

Realize you were more fun without the drugs?

Without the pain, Without the fear, I'm losing everything again

 

 

 

Feel these words, see my anger, hear my tears

These are the words of a long lost love

Run this song through, you can't destroy this feeling

This pain will haunt you forever

You will cry, cry, cry

But you must remember you did nothing to stop it

 

So...

 

 

GRAB THE NEEDLE, ROLL THE MONEY, CRUSH CRUSH CRUSH!!!

THIS IS THE ONLY WAY TO HAVE FUN

THIS IS HOW WE PARTY!!!

RUN RUN RUN RUN RUN RUN

RUN AWAY FROM THE RESPONSIBILITY YOU NOW CARRY!!!

 

 

 

Why did you grab the needle, the pill, the dollar fucking bill?!

Why didn't you think of who you were?

Realize you were more fun without the drugs?

Without the pain, Without the fear, I'm losing everything again

 

 

 

 

The anger inside will be buried 6 feet deep

With your friend, you killed them

Your ignorance ended their life

For once you realize how it could all end

Now you celebrate the wrong way

DRUGS, ALCOHOL, WOMEN

THIS IS WHAT CUT THEIR LIVES SHORT

CELEBRATE THE RIGHT WAY, REMEMBER HIM, HER, THEM

THE WAY THEY WERE BEFORE AND...

 

 

 

BREAK THE NEEDLE, BURN THE MONEY, CRY CRY CRY

THIS IS HOW YOU CELEBRATE THEIR DEATH

THIS IS HOW YOU SLOW DOWN DOWN DOWN

SO WALK, TALK, BREATHE

CAUSE THEY CAN'T, WON'T, EVER AGAIN

REMEMBER YOUR RESPONSIBILTY, WATCH YOUR FRIENDS, LOVE THEM CORRECTLY

CAUSE I CAN'T SEE THESE DREAMS MUCH LONGER, I MISS THEM TOO

AND I KNOW WHAT YOU DID, BUT I SHARE THE BLAME, SHAME, HATE

 

 

 

Author's Notes/Comments: 

My brother lost a lot of friends to drug overdoses over the pandemic. He and I both grew up with a lot of them. Meg was a girl i had met when I was in college, she was the one on a slab in the beginning. I had a dream about her on that slab a week before i found out she was dead...We weren't super close after college but she was always a part of my life, and I'm glad my brother got to meet her. If you do party with drugs, please be careful. Too many people OD, and a lot of you will say "Oh it won't happen to me." well you're wrong, cause all of them said it.
