I'm held fast, how long will this last'
Feel like a slave to my past, But I know that's a lie
My own will, with the strength of Advil
Is not curing my ill And it fails when I try
I need light in this fight

Why not today' Don't wait 'til tomorrow.
Why should I delay and stay in my sorrow'
Why not today'

I hug my knees, and I make my plea
With a part of me that's trying to rise
But habit, like a rabid dog,
has been eating me alive
And I'm frantic 'cause I'm bad sick
with all this evil inside
I know the old me will die, if you bring the new me to life
