about
I have to acknowledge my capacity, not my desire, for relapse. The most terrifying thing to know as an addict is that you have the mental and physical capability for one more run. I have to admit it, not hide it. In short, we are all one or two bad decisions away from a jail cell. Life is stressful, especially when you're trying to rebuild it from the bottom. It's easy to lose sight of what exactly the most important thing for you to focus on is. People will give you their version of what walking the beaten path to success entails. Take it or leave it. "Success is obedience to a structured way of life", and I do not trust that structure no matter how cozy and warm it may seem.
"A rolling stone gathers no moss" is an old proverb, credited to Publilius Syrus, who in his Sententiae states, people who are always moving, with no roots in one place, avoid responsibilities and cares.
Another interpretation equates "moss" to "stagnation"; as such the proverb can also refer to those who keep moving as never lacking for fresh ideas or creativity.
lyrics
Woke up feeling like I was the only one with another run inside my bones. Just one more time for fun. I'll look the other way so I don't see myself slide right back down the same hill I climbed up just yesterday. Now another winter's warmed and now another motherfucking summer's gone cold. Am I getting better, brighter and bolder or am I just getting burnt out and bored and old? Back at intake in Chicago right along West Lake and Ashland empty stamp-bags line the gutter, and the people, they line the clinic. Here at home I'm barely breathing trying to follow what's misleading. Fleeting thoughts, hot spots, cold shots and a little rinsing and repeating. They said "get a job or just get lost" so now I'm lost. They said "get religion or you'll get lost" so now I'm lost. They said "follow the path or you'll get lost" so now I'm lost. Just keep moving. A rolling stone gathers no moss. Woke up feeling like I was the only one with another run inside my bones. Just one more time for fun. I'll look the other way so I don't see myself slide right back down the same hill I climbed up just yesterday.
