Same deal, Same problem

Verse 1)

I walked down that aisle, tears in my eyes

Said the words, felt the change, believed the lies

That everything would be different, washed away clean

But the chains are still here, the same old routine

(Chorus)

I'm saved, but I'm stuck, a prisoner inside

This addiction's a monster, nowhere to hide

I pray for strength, for a light to break through

But the darkness lingers, what else can I do?

(Verse 2)

I read the scriptures, I sing the hymns loud

Try to fill the void, escape the dark cloud

But the cravings return, a familiar sting

Is this my forever? Will my soul ever sing?

(Verse 3)

I confess my sins, beg for release

But the grip of this habit just won't decrease

I'm caught in a cycle, a constant repeat

Same deal, same problem, can't admit defeat

(Verse 4)

I look in the mirror, shame in my eyes

A hypocrite, a failure, living these lies

I'm supposed to be better, a new creation

But I'm trapped in this struggle, this constant frustration

(Chorus)

I'm saved, but I'm stuck, a prisoner inside

This addiction's a monster, nowhere to hide

I pray for strength, for a light to break through

But the darkness lingers, what else can I do?

(Outro)

Same deal, same problem, day after day

Will I ever break free? Is there another way?

I cling to the hope that someday I'll be whole

And finally escape this dark, heavy toll.
