Monkey On My Back

Sitting here in darkness black.
Trying to shake this monkey on my back.
This last year has seen such death.
Of true freindship and true love.
I sank so low,
I hurt them all.
It led me to a massive fall.

I only hope to make things right.
I try so hard to keep the fight.
I hope one day they'll listen through,
all the truth I have for you.
