I should be a better person
And practice what I preach
I should be a better lesson
Maybe then I'll get to teach
Life still hasn't past me by
So it's within my reach
Addiction is my obstacle
No picknick at the beach
I'm out here on the front lines
The enemy can breach
In my head it's time to wage a war
But I search for inner peace
I'm stranded on a stormy sea
The holes are in my boat
My life preserver doesn't fit
I'm struggling to float
I'm sitting in my angry chair
The walls close in on me
And sometimes I think I see the light
But these chains won't set me...
