I've tried to do this on my own
|
Without the help of telephones
|
The only place I need to be
|
Is right here where I'm forced to see that
|
I can fight against disease
|
Or let it take me out to sea
|
Either way I just might drown
|
But I'd rather swim than hit the ground
|
|
I'm willing now to do what it takes to see
|
That the boy looking back in the mirror isn't me
|
|
So take back your 12 step self help programs
|
And let me tell you all about how
|
It was self that got me here in the first place
|
And self that taught me how to replace
|
Everything I know with every other option
|
But the only right way to go
|
|
Yeah I'm pretty sure that now it shows
|
I could never see far past my nose
|
And I'm almost positive these pills
|
Are the only thing that ever made me ill so
|
I'll make it through another week
|
Despite the fact that I can't sleep
|
The only problem I can see
|
Is this is not who I'm meant to be and
|
|
I'm ready now to do what it takes to see
|
That the boy looking back in the mirror isn't me
|
|
The only I have to hold to is a promise
|
You put another life inside of me
|
That's not my own
|
|
So take back all your self help programs
