You think that Straight Edge is a joke That's what you said last we spoke I hope you heed the words I said If you don't, soon you could be dead If you only knew the things that I knew If you could only see the things that I've seen You'd know how drug abuse is wrong And how my edge has become so strong The boy down the street with everything in the world Never would have guessed how his life has unfurled Found by his family dead in his room, Heroin introducing him to his tomb A disgruntled neighbor didn't like what his life had become Tried to drown it away in a bottle of rum That didn't work, he wrote a suicide note Then put a bullet in his fucking throat If you only knew the things that I knew you'd be Straight Edge too, And you'd understand why I'll always stay true
