HER CHOICE

SHE CHOSE NEEDLES IN HER ARM INSTEAD

OF BLOOD FLOWING THROUGH HER THAT'S RED

THE TRACKS IN HER ARMS ARE KILLING HER VEINS

 THE SCARECROWS ARE EATING AWAY AT HER BRAINS

 WE LOVE HER ENOUGH FOR AN INTERVENTION

SO MANY FRIENDS CARE,TO MANY TO MENTION

IF SHE IS READY, THERE'S SO MUCH TO DISCOVER

WORKING 12 STEPS IS ONLY WAY SHE’LL RECOVER

WHEN YOU HIT LEVEL GROUND, YOU’LL TAKE INVENTORY

SO SOMEDAY SHE CAN TELL EVERYONE HER STORY

MIRACLE ON EARTH

 YOU ARE THE GREATEST MIRACLE ON EARTH

 YOUR MOM AND DAD KNEW THAT FROM BIRTH

NATURE TAUGHT YOU HOW TO BE A MOTHER

 BUT THE WAY YOU LOVE AND CARE FOR OTHERS

IS SOMETHING THAT MUST BE LEARNED

YOUR RESPECT FROM OTHERS YOU HAVE EARNED

GOD HONORS YOU THROUGH YOUR PRAISE

IN RETURN YOU LOVE EVERYONE THE SAME EVERYDAY

YOU NEVER TURN YOUR BACK ON THE ONES IN NEED

YOU ARE A MIRACLE ON EARTH IN DEED

THE WAY WE WERE

THE WAY WE WERE, THE WAY WE ARE

THINGS HAVE CHANGED BUT JUST HOW FAR

THINGS YOU SAID, THINGS I DONE

 REMEMBERING HOW THIS ALL BEGUN

PAIN OF THE WORDS THAT WERE SAID

 KEEPS RUNNING THROUGH MY HEAD

THE WAY YOU PUR LIKE A KITTEN

TO THE WAY YOUR POEMS ARE WRITTEN

I MISS YOU MORE AND MORE EVERYDAY

I WANT BACK TO YOU, BUT I’VE LOST MY WAY

I SEE YOUR FACE IN EVERYTHING I DO

BRINGS ME BACK TO HOW MUCH I MISS YOU

DO YOU EVER WONDER WHERE I AM

HOW I FEEL, OR ARE WE DEAD AND GONE

HAS YOUR FEELINGS FOR ANOTHER BEGUN

LET ME KNOW, DON’T LEAD ME ON

BE HONEST IF I’M NO LONGER THE ONE

POORLY HAPPY

I’M A SUCCESSFUL PERSON

FROM A IMPORTANT PLACE

 EVERY TIME I LOOK INTO THE MIRROR

I CAN NO LONGER RECOGNIZE THIS FACE

THE COST OF NO RETURN TO

ALL THE PEOPLE I HAD TO BURN

LOOKING BACK NOW I’M NOT HAPPY

MORE OF A FEELING OF EMPTINESS AND SAD

ALL THE PEOPLE I'VE WALKED ON

MIGHT CALL THIS KARMA

 SUCCESS AND EMPTINESS GO TOGETHER

LIKE GREG AND DARMA

SO I’M HAPPY BECAUSE I DON’T HAVE A LOT

BUT AT LEAST MY KIDS ARE FED

AND A COT, FRIEND THAT MEANS A LOT

REMEMBER WHEN THIS ROAD COMES TO AN END

RICH OR POOR WE ARE ALL EQUAL AGAIN

ONLY WAY TO YOUR FUTURE IS THROUGH YOUR PAST

I LOOK OUT UPON THE LAKE,

 PONDERING MY REGRETS THAT TURNED TO MISTAKES

THINGS I'VE DONE HAUNT ME EVERYDAY,

 IT’S A PART OF ME I CAN NEVER ESCAPE

KEEPS ME FROM MY DIGNITY OF A MAN,

 MY REGRETS YOU WOULD NEVER UNDERSTAND

UNTIL I CAN GET PAST THIS PART OF MY LIFE BEHIND ME

 I CAN NEVER BE TOTALLY FREE

THE THINGS I'VE DONE THE ONES I HURT,

 BRINGING BACK THE FEELINGS, BRINGING BACK THE DIRT

ONLY WAY BACK IS THROUGH THE MENDING OF TWELVE STEPS

IF NOT THEN MY LIFE WILL BE DIGGING DEEPER DEPTHS

CAUSE THE ONLY WAY TO YOUR FUTURE IS THROUGH YOUR PAST

NOW YOU'VE CONFRONTED THE PAIN, NOW YOU’RE FREE AT LAST

FLUFFY AND SCRAPPY

 FLUFFY ROLLED AROUND PLAYING WITH HIS TOYS

PURRING OUT LOUD, LIVING THE LIFE THAT HE EMPLOYS

WHILE IN THE MEANTIME SCRAPPY'S GAMES IS STARTING TO GET FLUFFY ANNOYED 

AS A KITTEN FLUFFY LAYS UPON MY SHOULDER FOR HOURS

UNTIL HE SPOTS SCRAPPY THE MOUSE CREEPING AROUND THE CORNER

HE CRAWLS INTO POSITION, WITH A CURIOUS LOOK OF INDECISION

 A BLINK OF THE EYE, SCRAPPY WAS GONE WITH HER NIGHTLY  GOODBYE

FLUFFY SHAKES HIS HEAD WITH CONFUSION HOW DID SCRAPPY CROSS THE DOOR

 TIRED OF SCRAPPY GETTING THE BEST OF HIM THIS TIME SCRAPPY WONT MAKE IT TO THE DOOR

 ONCE AGAIN  AS THE MORNING RISES AND FLUFFY SNORING ALL NIGHT AND

 SCRAPPY CROSSING BACK AND FORTH ACROSS FLOOR

 COULD YOU IMAGINE FLUFFY NOW PISSED OFF,AND SCRAPPY LAUGHING FLUFFY

 REACHES INTO THE DOOR WITH HIS LEFT PAW

MAYBE IF FLUFFY WAS A LITTLE OLDER HE COULD,DO SOME TOM & JERRY

ROUTINE  RIPPING THE DOOR OUT THROUGH THE WALL

IT'S A DREAM FLUFFY HAD  THAT'S ALL

BUT THE TRUTH OF IT TO FLUFFY  SCRAPPY'S NOTHING MORE THAN A FURRY BALL

CAN YOU BELIEVE,IT SCRAPPY SNUCK BY FLUFFY AGAIN WITHOUT FLUFFY EVEN SEEING SCRAPPY

 NOW ALL IN FUN SCRAPPY TEASES FLUFFY AND IT DRIVES THAT FUR BALL CRAZY

 CRAZY, EVERY TIME FLUFFY CATCH'S  SCRAPPY HE PUTS HIM BACK SAFELY

CAUSE TO FLUFFY SCRAPPY IS NOTHING MORE THAN A TOY, LITTLE FURY BALL OF JOY

FLUFFY AND SCRAPPY ARE MORE THAN FRIENDS IF I DIDN'T KNOW BETTER I'D CALL

 THEM TWINS FIGHTING WHEN THERE ANNOYED EVERY NOW AND THEN BUT

 MOSTLY, CHASING EACH OTHER THROUGH THE HOUSE OVER AN OVER AGAIN

HER DIAMOND TURN TO TEARS

She’s calling out for you, but your nowhere around

She’s shaking and her pulse is falling, she can't speak her throat is swollen

She believes she can see you from a distant, one things for sure shes precipitant 

Because if that is you with her friend, you’ve been telling her lies

She start to cry, remembering every time he told a lie

It’s not even I love you anymore, it’s just back at you goodbye

He brings her home another diamond, she pauses, then she begins to cry

,

Now knowing why, her diamonds turn to tears

,

Every time she tells him to leave, he lies again, she can’t win

Her diamonds turn to tears, her suspicions turn to fear, he no longer cares

She’s at the point, where she’s had enough, time with him has been rough

She throws each diamond back at him, each one had a face of him cheating again

Things that happened then, won’t happen anymore, as each diamond hit the floor

Her diamonds turned to tears, her diamonds haven’t fallen in years
