Chorus:

I remember when you first got drunk

Thirteen turning twenty-one

You told me what it was like

To drown and forget your life-

You were young then

Now we´re older

Life seems to get bolder-

Not a trophy for the winner

but a glass bottle for a sinner

A sinner like you

The beer bottle shattered

Across the tile floor

I opened the door

You fell over

Started drinking covert

Started speaking slower

Red eyes

Bad breath

It doesn´t have to be this way,

Mac.

I don´t know about you but I hate it when you´re like this

You´re in the abyss.

Please

don´t forget.

Chorus

Sometimes I forget

It´s not your fault after all

When we were kids you used to bawl

about the ¨falls¨

That´s what your mother called it

When your father started to submit

To the call

Of alcohol.

Chorus

Sober up.

It´s not that hard.

Let down your guard.

I won´t hurt you,

I´ll help you through-

Back to the other side

I care about you.

Stand up

Take my hand

I might not understand

I´ll try-

I´ll try to help my friend.
