Twin Lakes

I open my eyes up There's somebody sleepin' in the bed next to mine But I don't recognize them Couple nurses comin' in the room to check on me And maybe shed light, tell me where I am My legs are too long for the twin size bed She said I need rest, time to take my meds It's gonna be a long 30 days ahead I went for my phone, but it's gone She said the staff searched everything I own They confiscate my razor, my cologne They made me sign a waiver, I can't call home So now I'm praying to the light on the fire alarm Thinkin' to myself, "Look what I've become?" The tears on my face taste like alcohol I'm crawled up in a ball fightin' my withdrawals I was starin' in the mirror and the man I saw Was appalled at the wrong I've done And it's never been as clear as it is right now I was powerless all life long I'm ready for recovery Tryin' on to break these chains Ready for recovery Tryin' to escape Twin Lakes It's 6 a.m. And I don't got an appetite for breakfast I can't make friends Cause I don't think that I know who I am yet I flick my cigarette ash, I'm scared of talkin' group A girl across the room is sayin' how she got abused Younger kids are laughin' like it's funny, I am not amused I need to mind my business That's the type of attitude I'm trying to lose Told my counselor, "I think that I fell out of love of livin' I drink Crown by the gallon jug Not an ounce of fuck is givin', buzz without the fun Now I'm just a violent drunk And if I don't want to get sober, then it's all over I just hope my higher power shows forgiveness Victim of this drug abusive life I live Lose my mind and then another suicide attempt So I turn my willin' life over to you to drive again I'm just hopin' I got time to undo the wrong I did" I was starin' in the mirror and the man I saw Was appalled at the wrong I've done And it's never been as clear as it is right now I was powerless all life long I'm ready for recovery Tryin' on to break these chains Ready for recovery Tryin' to escape Twin Lakes It's never too late
