I Can't Help Myself

I've been lost in the darkness for so long

I can't see the light

I've been strung out, burned out, left out

And hung out to dry

So I say to myself that I wanna get better

Hidin' from the truth, I can't last forever

Jesus, help me, obviously, I can't help myself

I've got nobody else

Send me an angel, someone to strangle that old demon

That's haunting me there on the shelf

I can't help myself

And my excuses are so old and tired

Hell, I forget 'em

I keep fallin' and crawlin' and drownin'

Down here on the bottom

Yeah, I've pushed back my brothers, said goodbye to my friends

When you get in this deep, the hell never ends

Jesus, help me, obviously, I can't help myself

And I've got nobody else

Send me an angel, someone to strangle that old demon

That's haunting me there on the shelf

I can't help myself

Give me a reason to live and show me a sign

I'm on the edge, goin' out of my mind

I'm down on my knees

I'm beggin' you, please make me somebody else

I can't help myself, no

I need something stronger, pour it all over me

Send me an angel, someone to strangle that old demon

'Cause you know that I never will

I can't help myself

Lord, I can't help myself
