Silly song with serious side.


Positives Builds Negetive Kills

Positive builds Negative kills
Got a cure for all your ills
Maybe this sounds real silly
My new clothes gonna be frilly

Tired of all that's gray and black
Gotta get out of this gunny sack
Shinny hair and shinny teeth
Pressed paints, that looks real neat

People looking, oh yes I care
Cause I got some new underwear
The smell is gone but not for long
I found out that I don't belong

My breath of alcohol does smell
Now the negative story I tell
It started with my first drink
Then I threw up in the sink

It made me feel like I'm a hero
The next morning felt a zero
Off the wagon I did fall
Then I heard the needles call

As I grew old pale and thin
It felt good to prick my skin
Cause I'm pale I must have solar
Now they say I was bi- polar

I remember all those family voices
Telling about my bad choices
When I cut I did bleed
Was told I was a bad seed

As I lay here taking my last breath
Remembering my dad before his death
"Positive builds, negative kills
Got a cure for all your ills

I am Postive that you are talented in many, many ways. You created images in my mind and feelings in my heart. Glad you are here brother!

Fantastic! I love the rhythm of the lines, I read it with a beat, almost like a rap and it worked for me. I love the message. Good show!
