This has been a great year, so far
I gave up bad habits, like the bar
Alcohol always gave me a headache
Drugs from the street, I couldn't take
Those I called friends were enemies
Got tired of what they tried to do to me
Relationships ended with lots of heartbreak
Love it seems was without a doubt, faked
Finding myself alone turned out to be
The best damn thing, that ever happened to me
