This darkness inside I no longer can hide Consuming from within The misery must end It all started as fun Yet soon the troubles begun Just trying to gain acceptance I never expected all this The use and misuse Quickly evolved into abuse I lost all control, I know not when One thing I know. this misery must end I sworn I'd never become an addict In spite of my pride, I became sick This all happened not over night Misery came slowly like darkness over light Recovery now my hope, the light enters in Damage has been done, but life doesn't have to end I now know how it all started, a character deficit my own Fear of rejection was the seed I had sown I cannot undo troubles of my past in a blink But, I can change my future by changing the way I think The Road to Recovery is long. but I travel it with a friend He promises me the hope that the misery will soon end.

The Misery Must End
This darkness inside I no longer can hide Consuming from within The misery must end It all started as fun Yet soon the troubles begun Just trying to gain acceptance I never expected all this The use and misuse Quickly evolved into abuse I lost all control, I know not when One thing I know. this misery must end I sworn I'd never become an addict In spite of my pride, I became sick This all happened not over night Misery came slowly like darkness over light Recovery now my hope, the light enters in Damage has been done, but life doesn't have to end I now know how it all started, a character deficit my own Fear of rejection was the seed I had sown I cannot undo troubles of my past in a blink But, I can change my future by changing the way I think The Road to Recovery is long. but I travel it with a friend He promises me the hope that the misery will soon end.
