My Downward Spiral
by Rhonda Marie Baumgardner

Rebellion was my game
Doing nothing the same
I was young and held down
Always had my feet planted to the ground
Tired and lonely all the time
I had never even commited one crime
One day I'd had enough mush
Got fixed up and went out in a rush
Went to a bonfire
Guzzeled liquid fire
Met a guy that took my breath away
Knew that fate had sent him my way
In a downward spiral I fell
Nothing could break the spell
I  loved ZZ top, Judas Priest, Def Leppard
Iron Maiden, Megadeath, Lita Ford
But what drove my mother overboard
Was the best, Ozzy Osbourn
Doing coke, acid and shrums
Doing pot till the room was filled with fumes
Drank Jack Daniels, Wild Turkey and Jim Beam
Till I was coming apart at the seams
My beautiful guy never asked for sex
Almost gave me a complex
Knew he loved me that was for sure
The only thing left in my life that was pure
As a young teenager my life almost ended
Over the clouds I was eternally suspended
When I saw God was when I got a clue
In the end I almost got my due
With my guys and Gods love
I finally rose above
I still love my music
But the rest, I know where to stick
