to ponder being clean.<br />
Wasting away, a fiend - <br />
didn&#39;t know what free could mean.<br />
<br />
I sit and wonder why<br />
I spent my life so high -<br />
wasting dreams by and by -<br />
living a total lie.<br />
<br />
Lost friends and precious time;<br />
scheming a life of crime.<br />
Wasting turns on a dime - <br />
no reason to the rhyme.<br />
<br />
Turning my thoughts around -<br />
no longer I am bound.<br />
Wasting away I found<br />
a way to solid ground.</td></tr></table><div class="copyrightDiv" align=center>
