Eric, he was my first boyfriend
We were in a car accident at sixteen
He died in front of me
And Karen was a grade school friend of mine
On her senior trip down in Mexico
She danced too hard and lost her life
I took a blow when Silvio
Was ejected from that SUV's front window
And Justin just ended in his parents bathroom
So that's why I live my life
Apple was expelled his freshman year
He blew his brains on his bedroom walls
So I got this tattoo on my arm
And Jasiri hung himself in his studio
He loved and lost, boy, he tried and tried
With a broken heart, one too many times
Then there is my dear Brian
Who ditched his truck on the top of Devil's Slide
And we'll never know if he's coming home
'Cause the police have ruled it a suicide
And it kills me 'cause he was one of those great loves of my life
So go and live your lives!
Losing my older brother
Is a pain I won't get over
He finally found his stride
Moved his babies and his wife
Out to Reno to get that good life
And everything was going great until he met his fate
He was electrocuted at work in some crawl space
And then for eight years I ate pills everyday
Derrick still comes to me in my dreams
We swim in pools that are made of gold
He was never comfortable in this world
And Karl came to live with me in L.A
Complained every day that his stomach hurt
And then four months later dead from cancer
My first best friend and cousin, Brendan
He had a heart attack from taking too much Phen-Phen
Now he'll never have to think he's fat again
I spent way too long hating my life
'Cause my friends were gone
And it almost killed me
I got a second chance to live again
Unlike any one of them
And it showed me what life could be
Although people don't stay
All of their memories can still remain
So try to love your life, while you can
