[Verse 1: Sam Mackey]

I take a breath and count to ten

But even then I feel the obsession

Coming its creeping in

Upon its arrival I take one last look

Memories scrapped in a book

For what its worth I tried

I don't have a choice

Now that's a fucking lie

For what will I go the distance

Run so there's no witness

Man I know you hear these words

But I don't think you listen

Drag my body to the dirt

So I can rest and have the rest of my family hurt

Fill me up with ambition

Take away this obsession

Insanity has swallowed me down to my knees

I don't know how to give in so god please

Here is I surrender

No longer trying to win as a contender

God pray for her I hear as I walk down the street

They're all staring at me

Cause I can't help these tears running down my cheek

[Verse 2: Sam Mackey]

I drag my feet across the concrete

My body is heavy I'm beat

Show me how to live I repeat

Again and again

Take another step and then

I fall hard to the ground

Don't want to be seen don't want to be found

Leave me be this is where I belong, laying on the street

What's my name? What the hell do I believe?

Ready to give in, I scream for help

Arms wrapped tight knees to chest

Stripped my armor, just my child is left

No protection

He whispers, "The needle is your weapon."

No I'm fighting the thought

My body tenses up

I don't want to die! Harder and harder I cry

Take one last look at the sky

And there she is, I see her eyes

My body stops the fight

She helps me rise

Hugs me tight

Sam, everything Is going to be alright
