Bill W, I'm confused as I scan these rules

A game you play step by step

Twelve steps before me, to master them all

And reach a goal I've never met

Once and for all

I thought I could do this easy

All on my own

No one can tell me how

No one told me its not easy, now that I know

Oh, how it hit me hard

Will I connect, in this sobering quest

Some players took this road and fell

Losing the way, when this game was too hard

Misunderstanding, so to fail

No, not again

So who am I to be saved from myself

That gate was locked, please let me in

Twelve steps to find me and I don't want to climb again
