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
