"Twisted"
I'm so afraid to let you see meTo let the wall down and breath easy
Inside I'm ugly and full of despair
And all the pain is now too much to bare
Haunted with the memories, from things done in the past
I fill their hearts with a little hope
But sobriety never lasts
I'm the cause of broken promises, disappointments and wasted years
I'm the cause of any shame, loss of love and twisted fears
Sorry isn't good enough
You've heard it all before
I'm tired of this hopelessness and so I drink once more
The only way out is for me to die
And I fall to my knees and begin to cry
No one would notice - No one would care
And my children would be better off if I wasn't here
How often I feel this and believe that it's true
The disease's got a hold of me
And I don't know what to do
I'm locked inside and must break through
So I can get from me to you
I don't remember who I was, before this all began
But maybe with a little help, I'll find out who I am
