Among the Worst of Them
You close your eyes at night
Trying to escape this never ending fight
You chase your dreams
Wishing everything wasn’t what it seems
But you can’t escape
This hopeless fate
I may not know who you are or where you’ve been
But I know I’m among the worst of them
You say there’s no one that can change you now
But I know I’m among the worst of them
Those voices inside
Oh how they lie
But with every whisper
Oh how you wanna die
This addiction is always getting you
Inside there’s nothing you can do
I may not know who you are or where you’ve been
But I know I’m among the worst of them
You say there’s no one that can change you now
But I know I’m among the worst of them
No matter how much you scream
You’re never waking from this evil dream
You do everything you can to escape
Before salvation is too late
The world’s judgments
Are so much more than permanent
You seek for any kind of help
But they’ll never understand what you’ve felt
Is there anyone out there for you
Or is love too good to be true
I may not know who you are or where you’ve been
But I know I’m among the worst of them
You say there’s no one that can change you now
But I know I’m among the worst of them
I was a sinner destined for hell
Never knowing how far I fell
But then I was saved by God above
And I want to show you heaven’s love
No matter how long it takes
Through all your mistakes
I want to show you it’s never too late
I may not know who you are or where you’ve been
But I know I’m among the worst of them
You say there’s no one that can change you now
But I know I’m among the worst of them
