10: You Gotta Stop

8 0 3
                                    

I stare in the mirror and wonder what I've become, 

I've got to stop,

I've got to stop chasing the one's that don't want me,

And stop pushing away the one's that love me,

I've got to stop,

My worst enemy was this person and that person, and the one in the mirror,

I hate myself with such a fervor, 

Yet I can't stop,

I can't stop living, I can't stop giving,

I can't help it, I can't control it,

Oh god, I want to cry,

Oh god, I want to die,

But I can't. I've got to start,

I've got to start loving, 

I've got to continue living and giving,

Start to embrace those small things in my life,

And take things in a confident stride,

I've got to start, but how can I?

Simply by taking things one step at a time,

I've got to start, and I've got to finish,

I'll pass the finish line, before I perish,

If I've got to stop, I'll go out with a bang,

If I'm going to start, I'll make my own gang,
