Nothin’ to die for!!!

This is the lyrics to a song by Tim McGraw, I can really relate to this song, it really remionds me of just how powerless I was when I was drinking over alocohol, because I would have without a thought laid down my life for my family, friends & country, I had it all to lose, yet I could not stop drinking.
##################################################

Nothin’ to die for

Stopped to have a few at five now you’re crossing that center line for the third time
Second time like this this week had a friend ask you for your keys
You said ‘no I’m fine’
You sure do act like you don’t got a thing to lose
But every car you pass might be the one’s you take with you

{Chorus}
You’d give your last breath to your wife
Take a bullet for your kids
Lay your life down for your country for your Jesus for your friends
There’s a whole lot of things you say you’re living for
You’ve got to fight it somehow, stop and turn around
‘Cause this ain’t nothin’ to die for

So what’s the harm in a little fun
‘Cause you’re off to work before the sun everyday
And the inbox outbox locks you in and the money you make ain’t worth the time you spend to make your pay
The doctor says ‘man your numbers they don’t lie’
The graveyard’s full of folks that didn’t have time to die

{Chorus}

Straight through that guardrail up into that white light
You hear a sweet voice saying just this side of the other side
Just this side of the other side

{Chorus}

Ain’t nothin’ to die for
Nothin’ to die for
Ain’t nothin’ to die for

WOW... Really good... especially...

You’d give your last breath to your wife
Take a bullet for your kids
Lay your life down for your country for your Jesus for your friends
There’s a whole lot of things you say you’re living for
You’ve got to fight it somehow, stop and turn around
‘Cause this ain’t nothin’ to die for

Made me squirm a little, hits close to home... Makes me glad to be sober today!

Mark

So sad, so true. I"m glad I'm sober these days cause I sure don't want to die from drinking.
