The Habit

Written December 17, 2011 They tell me I'm an addict But I swear I've kicked the habit Trapped between who I should be Should I lead or let them follow me I feel so lost in these times like these Fooling around in what I never should have done at all Should I let it rain on down tonight? Or go and breed another life? I've faced this day a thousand days before And yet I'll likely see a thousand more If I keep on living times like these It's times like this I'll forever see Wonder what it will ever take To wash this ever-growing pain away Feeling so lost in the cumbersome ocean sea Pleading "Lord, please don't give up on me!" Come rain on down another day But now to flood away my yesterdays Clean me up right here today So I can breathe another day
