Never Again
I know I fucked up,
That much is plain,
I could blame it on the her,
Or on beer ya see,
But truth be told,
It’s no ones fault but my own,
I didn’t have to give in,
And I don’t know why I did,
It turned me into something,
Something I swore to you I’d never be,
When I committed this treason of your trust,
I didn’t bat an eye,
It never even occurred to me,
That I would break your heart,
What I’m tryin to say babe,
Is that I fucked up,
Wholly and completely,
I feel like an ass hole,
And babe I know I am,
I don’t expect you trust me,
And I don’t dare expect you to just forgive,
All I can ask is that you don’t just leave me,
And you give me a second chance,
I know you think I’m a total prick,
And I know I deserve it,
But babe I promise I can do better,
I swear it to you here and now,
I will never let you down again,
I would sooner kill myself before I ever disappoint you again,
So in short babe I’m sorry,
So very very sorry,
I love you and I damn sure don’t want to hurt you ever again,
So if you could find it in your heart,
To keep me around,
You’ll find out just what my best is,
I know my sorry ain’t enough,
Not by a long shot,
But keep me around long enough and I’ll prove it to you,
Never again,
Never again.
