Suicide Kings

from Sibal War by Assassination Squad

lyrics

In the middle of the night my friend took his own life
He Jumped from the bridge into the river and just like that he's gone
No drinks left to raise no lyrics left to sing along
His daddy lost his job then he converted to a monk
His mother was abandoned he had nowhere to run
Depression sinking in hopeless and heartbroken

Remember the words in this tragic verse
Take care of your friends at their worst

Now I bring to light we're number 1 in suicide
But we never talk about it because of national pride
The youth are in a crisis but that fact you deny
And now we all bear the blame
And we oughta be ashamed
The older generations they gotta change their stubborn ways
Fed up with a hyprocrite old Lecture bout Responsibility

In the middle of the night I got the call that my friend died
I drank a fifth of whiskey held my head in my hands and cried
Fallout from mass layoffs ten thousand ruined lives
At the memorial in September we gathered to remember
We raised our drinks in honor of our fallen comrade there
This shit is too damn heavy almost too much to bear
