My Addiction

My Addiction To those in my life I’ve caused so much pain When I think about it, there was nothing to gain For so long I pushed everyone away Shut people out, created total disarray They say you learn from a past mistake You remember those who’s hearts you’d break I lost so much because of my addiction Anyone I met got caught up in my daily affliction But I’ve finally gotten myself to a better place Discovered the struggle of sobriety is not a race Follow the program the best I can Slowly make myself a better man No longer do I hurt those around me Don’t act like a dork at a family party My life has gotten so much better now From the time I wake up, I feel really wow!
