I Can't Help Myself

I can't help myself!
I keep falling into the same hole that I dug,  
Being stupid like a mindless little bug.
I say I'm not going to make the same mistake again,
Because I'm tired of living a that's life full  of sin.
I can't help myself!
The temptations are way too much,  
My temptations are addicting like the softness of a touch.
I can't help myself!
Sometimes I cry because of the person that I am,
It's like the devil keeps selling me the same old scam.
I keep falling for it over and over,
All the devil has to say is roll over.
I can't help myself!
I know I'm young and I'll make mistakes,
But one mistake is all that it takes.
One mindless decision could ruin my life,  
The decision that makes me choose a life or a knife.
I can't help myself!
I try to crawl up the hole,
But it's like I lost my soul.
Sometimes I do things and I don't care,
Theres a feeling of numbness that no one can repair.
I can't help myself!
It's crazy what temptations will do,
Making you feel they will always be apart of you.
It's like I can't say no,  
It's throwing me over and over again in the same hole.
I can't help myself...
