Nothing I Can Do

NOTHING I CAN DO - CHASE CURL

WRITTEN AUGUST 17TH, 2019

THE WAY I TRIED TO DEAL WITH THE PAIN

LEFT ME WITH THESE SCARS IN MY BRAIN

I TRY TO FIND SOMEONE ELSE TO BLAME

I KNOW IT’S ME, BUT I AM ASHAMED

THE BOTTLE COULDN’T TAKE IT AWAY

THE PILLS DIDN’T LAST MORE THAN A DAY

WHEN I TRIED TO FIGHT IT AWAY

IT GREW STRONG, AND LAUGHED RIGHT IN MY FACE

AND I CRIED

OH HOW I CRIED

WHEN IT TOOK OVER MY LIFE

AND I BEGGED

OH HOW I PRAYED

BUT THERE’S NOTHING I CAN DO TO CHANGE

I WENT INTO THE DARKNESS ALL THE TIME

I NEVER SECOND GUESSED MY PEACE OF MIND

I DID THINGS THAT MOST OF YOU WOULDN’T DO

BUT HERE I AM, TELLIN’ THIS TO YOU

THE WORLD IS A DARK AND EVIL PLACE

ONCE IN A WHILE, YOU’LL FIND YOUR SAVING GRACE

I’M NOT SURE I’LL EVER BE THE SAME

BUT I DID MY TIME, CAN YOU SAY THE SAME

AND I CRY

OH HOW I CRY

CUZ IT TOOK OVER MY LIFE

AND I BEG

OH HOW I PRAY

BUT THERE’S NOTHING I CAN DO TO CHANGE
