Something So Harmful

Why do you think you need
To do this to feel better?
Look at me, I’m fine without
How will it make things better?
You see, you mean so much
And I am concerned for you
I know you were much worse
But you pushed it ‘way from you
Why do you want to go back?

Oh sure, it’s just one time
But why do it at all?
How is something so harmful
The solution to it all?
Sure, it was just one time
For the one who died from it
How is something so harmful
The solution to it all?
I tell you, I want you back

Why do you want to go
Back to doing this, when you
Know it’s harmful to us
Harmful physically to you
The picture has got me
Wet in the eyes… come here
And tell me why you must
There’s a way out of this here
Tell me again, why go back?

Oh sure, it’s just one time
But why do it at all?
How is something so harmful
The solution to it all?
Sure, it was just one time
For the one who died from it
How is something so harmful
The solution to it all?
I tell you, I want you back

Why do you think you need
To do this to feel better?
I have never done it
You say I don’t know better
I could not understand
But how can I just watch you
Do these things to yourself
When I know this much ‘bout you?
I’m trying to watch your back
So...

Oh sure, it’s just one time
But even one can do it
How is something so harmful
The solution to it all?
All it takes is one time
For something so bad to come
So why do you do this?
I know you’re better than some
I want you to push it back

Oooh… sure, it’s just one time
Then all it takes is a dime
And I’m back to this rhyme
Feel like I’m choking on a lime
How is something so harmful
Solution to your problems?
Let me help you out instead of
Just adding to your problems
I tell you, this won’t help you

I am concerned for you
Why do you want to go back?
