DRUGS






DRUGS



It happens all around us
But we never see it done,
The kids they go and buy them
They think it will be fun.


Then they go off to a rave
And they dance the night away,
The drugs may make them feel good
But there is a price to pay.


Then addiction takes over
They just have to have their fix,
They will beg, steal or borrow
There is nothing they won`t risk.


They then turn to the hard drugs
In order to reach that high,
It becomes more dangerous
When risky drugs they buy.


We know some aren`t so lucky
They die taking their first `E`,
What possessed them to try them
Just remains a mystery.


The parents' lives are shattered
As drugs bring heartache and pain,
When they lose a child to drugs
Their lives are never the same.


So if you haven`t tried them
I hope you keep it that way,
You will be a lucky kid
Who will see another day.
