Lyrics

Now let me tell ya ‘bout a friend o’ mine

It was not too long ago and once upon a time

I was thinkin’ ‘bout the days we were growin’ up

Livin’ up to the life that they expected from us

You know we had a dream, and it seemed that it could be

A shot at a good life, instead of these hard times

(But) His pain was too great, and so that day never came

And though…I’m a year older now I can still feel his pain

Thinkin’ bout our lives- how we had come so far,

Tho it had been so hard, we always came out a star

And… Jimi always talked bout what he’d do in the future –

Cuz big dreams would come if we made it through

Life could never be only good times ya know,

And the downs turn around even though it seems (too) slow

And you got to stay real, and you got to stay with it

Cuz sadness got the best of him and now he’s down below

Jimi Dean was a friend o’ mine

A life of disappointment he’d confide

He could not depend on himself in the end

This Selfish lie

To tell the truth I don’t understand this man

He had a foolproof plan, he had the tools in his hand

It was a question of time before he found his fate

But he bought into the lies and so he drowned in hate

It was a day way back and he confided in me

And what he said to me was, man it’s time to leave

And I said ‘Where you goin’, he said gone to the skies

To give the earth my body bag so my soul could rise

Jimi Dean was a friend o’ mine

A life of disappointment he’d confide

He could not depend on himself in the end

This Selfish lie

Heaven never waits, its not for every long

Everything we ever learned, all we tried wasnt wrong

All of the dreams that we had they would come

If we made it through this pain theres no reason to be numb

But you let all of your demons rise up within

Don’t you know that the voices of the good, they can win

And we know that life can fade away, its fades into the blue

You never gave your life a chance and now its over and youre through

And when I saw him I just told him to chill

Take a breath, sit back don’t keep it all concealed

This life is complicated, the weight it falls on you

And they expect you to handle it all to get through

And don’t ya know- Cause everything that you feel in life

Is not always good, (but) it’s not worth it to die

You’re not the only one who goes through pain and strife

Jimi Dean could only see his thought of suicide

I know it always seems so hard

Just to believe in who you are

Sometimes we don’t see the sun

The darkness covers everyone

Sometimes when you feel so consumed with pain

The only way out is straight down the drain

It’s never too late to change the road you’re on

You got to realize that there’s a better way

Somehow I knew that you could never be changed

You had no idea the pain that ya caused, now you’re gone

And I saw-

What ya left behind, in the end your family

Wonderin’, suffering- what good will come of this

No matter what you face there’s got to be another way

But you never found

In the end you found, you found the only way out
