My Brand New Friend, Jack

My Brand New Friend Jack

behind every great man
theres one hell of a woman
so how does it come to this?
it all goes down hill
and you couldn't stop it
with the weight of the world
i stole your heart in
the beginning and I'm not ashamed
but then i cheat and for that i take
the blame
but when i lie i know its over.
i pray regardless of who will listen
and make every wish i could
that we would erase this slate
and let it be.
you must know I'm sorry
but i know you will never forgive me..

so I'm not a great man
but maybe i was at first
i had to of been to get such a great woman
but when i lie, cheat and steal
it won't get me anywhere.
it only took me back to where
i was before. and you make
it so hard to let these
memories go. i want to live in them but my
time is up. I'll still always be
sorry but at least you
will always forgive me.
