Friends For Sale - Leanne

Someone here, has offered you comfort
Through straws and mirrors, they distorted the reflection
Leanne
Where have you gone?
I don't know how to help, but you know I try my hardest
I hold your hand, while you throw up in the bathroom
Again
The fourth time today
And they drugged your drinks, just so they could take advantage
Took pictures of you naked in the bathtub
They're not
And never were your friends
In class, at school, came all the vicious rumors
You'd take off your clothes for anyone that asked you
If they
Gave you the next fix

And you know they will
Do anything, if it helps themselves
You fake it, It kills
Then suddenly you forget who you used to be
And how much is enough?
Before you become the drugs?

I hear them talk, in between classes
About this girl they fucked, when she was barely conscious
Your name
Was used a few times
Then it got worse, you switched to injections
To numb your heart, cause you wanted to feel nothing
You said
"It made things feel better than okay."
Then you missed school, and at first no one noticed
Then a week passed and your parents bought a coffin
My friend
What have you done?
Your mom found you, in your bedroom on the carpet
There was nothing left, but a poem about a garden
I read
Earlier that year

And you know I tried
But it wasn't enough just to confide
We're all dead inside
Now so much more, than ever before Leanne

You poisoned your blood
Here's to giving up
You became the drugs
Now you're nothing but
A memory
