Fall From Grace

I went from being the number one

There wasn't really any contest

Without trying I'd be the best

But now I'm working harder than ever

And I'm barely managing

On the bottom of the barrel

Tell me what's happened recently

That's caused me to sink so quickly

I once was the cream of the crop

Once sought after for my wits

But now I'm no more than the dregs

Just the scraps fed to the dogs

Now I'm the one seeking help

This disgraceful fall to the pits

Is more than I can handle

Show me how to return to normal

Teach me to be myself again

And maybe I'll bounce back

And prevent the end that I fear

With me six feet underground
