about

This is an amends letter set to music. It’s true, every bit of it and I’m not proud of it, but I can’t change it.

I've never been able to find the people involved in order to make amends, but those amends need to be made, so If I have to make them publicly I will. What I did wasn't right and I'm sorry.

‘Every choice we make, it comes with a price, some you pay right now, others take the rest of our life”

lyrics

It wasn't really love, it was just someone to screw
and now she's two weeks late and we don't know what to do
She tells me that abortion, well thats a mortal sin
There ain't no easy answers for the troubles that we're in

Aint no point in getting married, it ain't gonna last
My future's starting to look just like my Daddy's past
She holds all the cards, I don't get no say
I need to be a man, but instead I run away

Being young and scared that ain't no excuse
That won't justify the things that we choose
And every choice we make comes with a price
some you pay right now, others take the rest of our life


This relationship is over, it never has a chance
the only thing I cared about was getting in her pants
she tells me that I'm just, a self centered prick
we both know that she's right, and that fact it makes me sick

I crawled in a bottle feeling sorry for myself
she moved on with her life and she found someone else
I heard that they got married and made themselves a home
and that man he raised my child like it was his own

Being young and scared that ain't no excuse
That won't justify the things that we choose
And every choice we make comes with a price
some you pay right now, others take the rest of our life


That was forty years ago, I still carry the shame
So much time has now gone by I can't remember her name
Many times I've tried to find her, but its been too long
I'd like to make amends for the things I've done wrong

If I could just go back, what would I do?
I don't have an answer if you wanna know the truth
but I wouldn't turn my back and I wouldn't run
or feel forty years of shame for the things I've done


Being young and scared that ain't no excuse
That won't justify the things that we choose
And every choice we make comes with a price
some you pay right now, others take the rest of our life
