I had a friend named Victor

The two of us used to hang every single day

And it seemed like overnight that his whole life just changed

I know when his mom and dad broke up

It didnt make sense but I know that his dad was a drunk

And he gambled away the rent

Pretty soon vic was seein red

Pissed off but instead

He drank every night til he passed out

Then he d do it all again

The whole time smiling on the outside to cover the pain

But on the inside all he was tryin to do was get away

Dying to get away

Let the pain of yesterday go slipping through the cracks

Funny how things change color

Then fade to another shade

When you had it made it was all good

But now look just another day

It was so fresh it was so clean

Now its all gone

123lights out

Which way to turn

Can't get a grip

All alone in a big white house

Everyday gets worse and you just curse

'til your head bursts and it hurts so bad

She left like yourself should have thought of that one first

No family no kids can t accept what you did

Now you wanna runaway but you can't cuz the past comes back again

Slippin through the cracks

Sip a little jack

Go to bed half dead

What about rent

Why does every cent gotta be a bet

Whens it gonna end

Oh my god we dont got a penny left

My mom s gotta find a way to get a job

Outta debt outta dodge outta breath outta this big problem

My pops wanna get away from the pain

In a better place in his brain

But the medication he takes makes him wasted

So sick if hes gonna think the good lord would come take him

Im shakin him wake up you son of a bitch

He s dying to get away

Let the pain of yesterday go slipping through the cracks

Hiding himself away watching all the memories fade

Away From red to black

He s dying to get away

Let the pain of yesterday go slipping through the cracks

Hiding himself away watching all the memories fade

Away From red to black

（Slipping through the Cracks）
