Choices

I've had choices

Since the day that I was born

There were voices

That told me right from wrong

If I had listened

I wouldn't be here today

Now I'm living and dying

With the choices I made

I was tempted

By an early age I found

That I liked drinkin'

And I never turned it down

There were loved ones

And I turned them all away

Now I'm living and dying

With the choices I made

I've had choices

Since the day that I was born

There were voices

That told me right from wrong

If I had listened

I wouldn't be here today

Now I'm living and dying

With the choices I made

I guess I'm payin'

For the things that I have done

If I could go back

Lord I know I'd run

But I'm still losin'

At this game of life I play

Now I'm living and dying

With the choices I made

I've had choices

Since the day that I was born

There were voices

That told me right from wrong

If I had listened

I wouldn't be here today

Now I'm living and dying

With the choices I made
