let's see how high
i can count
before i decide
to turn my life around

if i don't change
the things i do
there won't be a thing
to do things to

i really need
to shine a light
on all i have
that resides inside

that keeps me here
right where i sit
preventing me
from getting ahead

not privy to
what's going on
to tell the truth
not sure i want

to hear how i
can bring about
the needed change
to get me out

of this hole
of self-defeat
i'm digging deep
in misery

which brings me back
to just how high
can i count
before i find

i need to turn
it all around
this life i have
of up-side down
