To my brother Jacob, please kick your addiction....
you know the end of something great is coming,
         but you want to hold on,
         just one more second,
         Just one more minute
         just so it can hurt a little more

         You know who you are.
         You're the one who shines so bright,
         an angel in some eyes
         but to me,
         You're just the one who traded everything for suffering
         the one who had the world in his hands
         and fucked up.
         You are my big brother.

         Notice how i say are
         instead of were
         thats because you're still my brother
         i still consider you family
         despite what has happened
         despite what people have told me
         what they say would have been "smart"

         I told them to fuck off
         leave me alone
         I could handle this all on my own.
         I never left and never will leave.
         Why? because this is what you asked of me.

         Some stuff, i admit i do for you
         even though you didnt ask me to.
         I follow behind the mistakes and clean up,
         I try to mend the broken hearts back up.

         but dont you see
         you're a poison, a disease. This is what you choose to be.
         Ironically, you're also the antidote. A cure
         to your own selfish ways. You're
         Like the light at the end of the tunnel.
         People see the good they just need to get there.

         and because of this im proud to say
         you and i have made it all this way.
         remember this is an i love you not goodbye
         Sure i lost my mind but i never really mean to die
