Lyrics To Live By!

Hello All! (Or no one at all, as the case may be lol) 

There's a Punk Band called "SNOT" and I have been listening to them for a long time now. And I recently found one of their songs on my Pandora stations!  It's more like a monologue set to music, but his lyrics have touched my ravenous heart in so many ways. Now I know it's not the blase form of music the majority listens to (Or that Snot normally plays!), and believe me he won't scream your ear off! It's all about Addiction and having to overcome our Inner Demons and make Positive Choices in our lives. He rambles on at times, but his message is honest, true and from the heart and it damn near makes me weep every time I hear it!Some of you may or may not know that I am a recovering Alcoholic with almost 8 years of Sobriety, and sometimes it seems like the uphill battle through snow your grandfather told you about years ago when describing that dangerous walk to school. ;) Most days I am fine with it, but when I feel it's evil clutches come scratching at my door, I jut think about these lyrics and it helps me push through that 10 minute crisis. I don't expect to one day wake up and be able to drink again, I know that will never happen without immediate Jails, Institutions or DEATH. I have a healthy fear of Alcohol though I don't let it control me. What would be the point of getting sober if I still worried about it all the time! I try to love myself, clean house, Be the best I can be towards others and every day I hope I am becoming a better Daughter, Sister, Husband, Aunt, Friend and Worker than I was before. Messages like this give me hope!!!*Please see the Lyrics attached below, as well as a link to the YouTube Video, which is was more awesome in MY book. 

Thank You and Have a Zen Day!
