They all asking what's


They all asking what's wrong

Why am I so destructive

Maybe I'm just defective

Everyday's the same

Feeling so locked inside myself

Living life like an outcast

Anything to relive the pain I feel inside

They asking, begging me to stop

Listening to myself ain't doing much help

I know I should stop before I go too far

And I'm dying to make it in this world

To be something more then a disappointment 

So I started listening to inspiration

Other people's stories 

about getting clean

And it made me wanna get clean too

So I got determination

Beat my depression put down 

all the things I was doing 

I've never felt better

I wanna inspire someone

Help someone through this all
