I'm so alone
  In the darkest place I know
  I'm a prisoner in my mind
  And I'm searching for that light
  And the faith I left behind
  I've tried so hard
  To look you In the eye
  Time has never been a friend
  And once again I've been betrayed
  By the weight of what I know
  And the choices that I've made
  You stood so tall
  And I've watched you fall
  Looking on the bright side
  I've known some peace
  Cried on the shoulders
  Of better men than me
  It's going to take a lifetime
  To wash away
  If I want to stay clean
  I've got to start today
