Never...O.K. Maybe One More Time...And Then Never

No it's not anything you may be thinking of
it's in fact a very unknown thing because
you see I have a friend Nick 
and he felt a little sick
and he grew tired of organized crime
so I tried to break him out of his mind
to set him on a lighter course
although it took alot of force  
he got out of his old ways
he still went back to those days
Nick Never Craze (yes, that is his real name)
Held his old ways (everything stayed the same)

so I wrote this for him

Never back down he said
I can't be normal again
Can you see me, Red?
Killing me inside again

Crazy how it feels
Right and wrong it steels
Always searching for something more
Zippo lighters and kicking down doors
Easy times they where indeed
    but this is how it feels to me
