Scenario

forgive me if i've been

confused between the means and an end

i forgot to be a brother and a friend

covered up indside

sometimes it's harder to know

i have failed at this scenario

my faults do run deep

your mercies do run deeper

so i knelt tonight

and felt that in somebody's mind

there's a memory of a balance met but left less than sublime

there's no credit line

no net worth to show

i can pay for this scenario

deepest apologies and sincere regret

for carrying this debt

this scenario returns me to where i began

losing what was mine and finding out a shortcut is a sin
