Can't see why I have denied
Can't see this thorn on my side
Take me before I go mad
How did I turn into this wreck?
I should just walk away
I should put the glass aside
This will be my dismay
Will you stay there and watch me die?
And I am the one who's drowning
This sorrow deep inside
And I am the one who's begging
Save me and be my guide
Just like a whip lashing on my back
Just like a knife going through my neck
The clock ticks my time is running out
Help me get away from this mess
I have become a slave
The bottle owns my mind
Addicted and decayed
Won't leave until it runs dry
And I am the one who's drowning
This sorrow deep inside
And I am the one who's begging
Save me and be my guide
And I am the one who's drowning
This sorrow deep inside
And I can't quit my addicted ways
I've passed the turning tide
