lyrics

These stories keep escaping I don’t keep them on the shelf
Read my books and you will find that I’m running from myself
Another mans been broken down by the daily grind
They are coming by the millions son and you start to wonder why

Feel that rush flow through your veins and lifts your body’s weight
But, when you are near me hell, I know I want to change
Feel my breath start flowing through and that’s all you’ll ever need
Find refuge in yourself is the only way to be free

I will put my addictions away
I can save them for another day
No stimulants to numb this body’s weight
I will put my addictions away

I’ll sail across the seven seas just to try and find escape
But wherever I go it still hits me in the face
I keep on comparing, there’s got to be a better life
I guess I’ll never find it if I believe in those lies

So I guess it’s just your state of mind and the charge of your thoughts
Take me where I need to be, and the bridges I need to cross
There are Two Wolves that live deep inside of me
The one that survives is the one that you feed.

Chorus

But it gets the best of me
It’s kind of hard to come clean
And it gets the best of me

So I’ll try and put these addictions aside
I figure I can last through the night
Just hold me while me body shakes it free
As this always seems to get the best of me
