Scenario

Forgive me if I've been confused
Between the means and end
I forgot to be a brother and a friend
Covered up inside
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 I 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
