yep.... that is ME ! .... I am not exactly proud of that ... but I can "own it"....

I hear you talk about your family life
I wish I knew just what that means
I guess my mother never loved my dad
And now I wear it on my sleeve

My sister called me just the other day
It felt so good to hear her voice
My problem is I don't have much to say
I guess she doesn't have a choice and I'm sorry

Look at me I'm so pathetic
I can't believe I'm just an addict
I've never needed anyone to help me
I'm begging you to please come save me from myself, save me from my...

My mothers always tried to change herself
She never learned to let things be
She doesn't know how bad she messed me up
'Cause now she seems so fake to me but I love her

Look at me I'm so pathetic
I can't believe I'm just an addict
I've never needed anyone to help me
I'm begging you to please come save me from myself, save me from myself

If you push me then I won't fall
I've been programmed to take it all
And shove it way down inside

Like my father (2x)

I'm so pathetic
I can't believe I'm just an addict
I've never needed anyone to help me (I'm failing it)
I'm begging you to please come save me from myself

I hear you talk about your family life
I wish I knew just what that means

THANK YOU to Tara, Jus, Zoe and AARON. I printed these lyrics and took them to the AC shows. Tara, Jus and Zoe took them backstage and asked Aaron to sign it for me. It hangs on my wall in my bedroom. Every morning I wake up and read it.

Vicodin and Oxy had me down for almost 6 years. Chronic pain sucks....but I'm also proud to say I've been off for 3 months and counting...and now the iPod and Staind give me some relief...just gotta stay away from someof it when the depression gets deep!!

And I quote--"Falling is easy, it's getting back up that becomes the problem".....The song falling, listen to it & use it for inspiration like I did. It does help! Good luck

Thanks StretcH!

It's a day to day process but I wouldn't be who I am today without it...
