Lyrics
Anyone can have a fall, it's gravity
Oh why can't I avoid, what's tempting me
Worms into my thought, I concede
Is there anybody, listening to me
Is there anybody, who knows how I feel
Is there anybody, who's gonna hold me
Cos I'm a liar, I'm a thief
I've one desire, that's all I need
Might something higher, come into this room and intervene....
I've been staring at the wall, weakening
Thinking maybe I could pour, one small drink
Oh I've been here before, I think I'm slipping
Is there anybody, listening to me
Is there anybody, who knows how I feel
Is there anybody, who's gonna hold me
Because I'm tired, because I'm weak,
I cannot fight this, I know I'm beat,
I have decided, tomorrow is the day that I go clean....
What's that you're sayin, I was a million miles away
Just contemplationg, how life can slip away
And the time I've been wasting
It won't come 'round again
I see the writing on the wall, it stares at me
I hear the voices in the hall, calling me,
I think I know what they want, but I'm not ready
