Growing up I was a huge fan of Mötley
Crüe and yes I even sported the hair. Thank goodness Darcy didn’t see me then or she would have run. Still to this day I enjoy their music and
sound.
Recently I have been listening to
a newer band called Sixx AM. For those
who may not know the Sixx in Sixx AM is the name of Nikki Sixx; the bassist for
Mötley
Crüe. He has faced many demons in
his life with his addiction to drugs and alcohol. He has been clean for awhile now and is still
rocking hard with both the Crüe and Sixx AM. His songs with Sixx AM are based on his experiences with his
past addiction with heroin. With such
titles as Tomorrow, Courtesy Call, and life is beautiful.
Today I received an X3 watch report from a
friend of mine who had a problem with pornography. For sometime now he had been doing well
until this past week when he slipped and fell pretty hard. Just before this report hit my email I had listened to the song “Accidents can happen” from Sixx AM. Below are the lyrics to this song. I think anyone who has been through or going
through the healing process of sexual addiction can relate to this song. During the healing period you will have slip
ups and you will feel like it is the end of the world. Remember you are not alone in this and like
the song says;
“Don’t give up, it takes a while” “and it’s ok” “so don’t give up”
“Accidents Can Happen”
Don’t give up, it takes a while
I have seen this look before
And it’s alright
You’re not alone
If you don’t love this anymore
I hear that you’ve slipped again
I’m here ’cause I know you’ll need a friend
And you know that accidents can happen
And it’s okay,
We all fall off the wagon sometimes
It’s not your whole life
It’s only one day
You haven’t thrown everything away.
Take some time and learn to breathe
And remember what it means
To feel alive
And to believe
Something more than what you see
I know there’s a price for this
But some things in life you must resist
And you know that accidents can happen
And it’s okay,
We all fall off the wagon sometimes
It’s not your whole life
It’s only one day
You haven’t thrown everything away.
I hear that you’ve slipped again
I’m here ’cause I know you’ll need a friend
And you know that accidents can happen
And it’s okay,
We all fall off the wagon sometimes
It’s not your whole life
It’s only one day
You haven’t thrown everything away.
You know that accidents can happen
And it’s okay,
We all fall off the wagon sometimes
It’s not your whole life
It’s only one day
You haven’t thrown everything away.
So don’t give up
It takes a while.
