Patrick Lyrics - Street Dogs

Neponset neighborhood landscape 

You loomed larger than most 

Owned scholastic and academic achievements 

All which you did boast 

The world was in the palm of your hand 

When you went backdoor on school and friends 

Drink, drugs, fighting fast lane life 

Grew big chips on those imposing shoulders 

[Chorus] 

Take it back Patrick 

Where is the kid that I once knew 

Such a young sick kid 

Where is this lifestyle taking you 

Look at what booze did 

The insanity breaking you 

Take it back Patrick

5 Totally Underrated Christmas Songs 

Put in choice dry out spots 

But you always broke out 

Claimed they didn't know your reality 

Loaded with self doubt 

Jump back on the pain train 

The ride will be different this time 

Denial express closes to a stop 

Your death, the end of the ride 

[Chorus] 

You can claim ignorance 

Once the reaper comes 

Because you got told about the cure by your drink doctor 

Go back on the bright, straighten up your life 

To you we do implore a second shot at this tonight 

Saw you lying there, beaten at town field 

With an unshakeable angry frown and requisite bottle 

That won't happen to you, you were once the ace 

A field's corner kid that the booze just knocked right out of place

Take it back Patrick 

Lazarus runs out of time 

Such a young sick kid 

Without reason or a rhyme 

Look at what booze did 

A family left beyond the wake 

Take it back Patrick
