One friend of mine drove away on a foolish cause;
With her involved, it can only be trouble.

One friend of mine lying down on the floor;
Now they're slowly eating his brain.

One friend of mine smoked his life away;
I can hardly call him a friend now.

One friend of mine pregnant from a moment of passion;
Don't blink now, it could get worse.

One friend of mine about to be homeless;
But their family can't have my couch to sleep on.

One friend of mine lost in a far-off land;
I no longer know her, but I still love her.

One friend of mine choking in a one-sided relationship;
At least their heart may be broken soon.

One friend of mine heartbroken from an insecure man;
It could have been me, but she didn't want it.

One friend of mine too shy to even be noticed;
I try to help them, but I'm pushed away.

One friend of mine is losing his mind;
The doctors just try and drug him.

One friend of mine is hated by another;
Again, the troublemaker is involved.

One friend of mine gave up and ran away;
He has his own life now.

Here I stand with one foot in the grave;
Lonely as hell, seeking a job, about to be homeless myself.
The stress is going to break me.

And none can there be to help me with mine,
Until I have first freed them of theirs.
