Wilderness

Praying for my soul, battling the demons in my head Out of control, that bottle keeps me spinning, My heart aches from being drenched in poison My soul aches from the battle that I can’t seem to overcome But then I wake to the sun Hoping that the Son would bring me someone to help me out this darkness Alcoholic never thought that would be me Crippled, miserable in this damn disease Praying to be saved but go home and drink constantly How can I think with this insanity that’s wide awake? Wreaking havoc on my soul Out of control in this dark hole Can’t blame anyone but myself I wish I had some help Hopeless in the wilderness Praying for my soul, battling the demons in my head
