I've had choices
Since the day
I was born
There were voices
That told me
Right from wrong
If I only listened
No
I wouldn't
Be here today
Living and dying
With the choices
I've made
I was tempted
By an early age
I found
I liked drinkin'
Oh
And I never turned
It down
There were
Loved ones
But I turned
Them all away
Now I'm living
And dying
With the choices
I've made
I guess I'm payin'
For all the things
I've done
If I could
Just go back
Oh
Lord knows I'd run
But I'm still here
Losin'
This game of life
I play
Losing and dying
With the choices
I've made
I've had choices
Ever since the day
I was born
I have my own voices
That told me right
From wrong
If I had listened
No, I wouldn't be
Sitting here today
Living and dying
With the choices
I've made
