Everything around me was new
It was scary what could I do?
Move forward, slowly and sure
Coz I couldn’t return to what was before
All the pain that I’d left behind
All that money and hurt it did to my mind
Change was scary, that’s for sure but
The alternative was to just stay in that rut
Even a positive change can be daunting
“Don’t do it!” My addiction was taunting
But I knew I had to move forward
And if you do then you can have my word
That if we follow advice to the letter
Then things are really sure to get better
Now my new is no longer new
It’s my recovery, it’s just what I do
