Circle of Chairs

They said…
Welcome
Just take a seat I…
I don't know if I can do this

Coffee burns in paper cups
Circles made of metal chairs
Eyes that look but do not judge
They carry the same despair

We've been there we know the fight
We've lost the days we've lost the night
But here we are we're not alone
One day at a time we make it home
One day at a time one day at a time

I'm Mark I can't stop the lies
I'm James I've lost my kids to this fight
I'm Tom I burned through love and trust
We nod because we've done the same

My throat is dry the word won't come
Addict addict addict my heart beats like a drum
But silence never saved me not before
So I stand I speak I open the door

We've been there we know the fight
We've lost the days we've lost the night
But here we are we're not alone
One day at a time we make it home
One day at a time one day at a time

My name is… um… and I'm a sex addict
One day at a time one day at a time
