Too Many People Can't
Control the Reality of Addiction
Running All Up Hill Carrying a Heavy Load
A Life of Excess Abusing Everyway
Your Tattered Health a Price Tag You Have to Pay

Ambition Falls Apart
Your Health Will Do the Same
Achievement Falls By the Wayside
An Addict a Family's Shame

Mistake
When You're Passed Out Drunk Using Around Your Kids
Won't Give Up Your Smoke Its Too Hard to Break
Why Don't You Find Some Courage For Your Families Sake
She Did Not Marry You
To Be Your Punching Bag
I'm Sorry Son But I Was Drunk
Why Should I Forgive You Man

Enough Misery and Hardship in This Life
Why Make More Problems Don't You Have Enough
Because Moderation Is the Key to Life
But There Are Many Things You Should Not Even Try
There's no Such Thing As Controlling Heroin
It Will Suck You Back to Pain and Hell Again
Stole From Your Mom
You Lost Alll Your Friends
Your Weakness Left You With no Opportunity

So If You Fall Again
Get Yourself Back Up
Just Never Give In
And Never Give Up

So Now You Cleaned Up
You Live Day to Day
Your Tattered Health a Price Tag You Have to Pay
Stole From Your Mom
Lost All Your Friends
Your Weakness Left You With no Opportunity

How Can You Be So Weak
To Let Afflictions Win the Fight
Addictive Personalities
Be On Guard the Rest of Your Life
