My children are born, but I'm still half afraidnThey'll turn out like me and this mess that I've madenThis marriage I've taken for granted so longnnThat trip that I'd taken to the school back in MarchnYou stayed with your sisternThat girl that I told you was only a friendnTurns out that I kissed hernnMy sister's a wreck and she has been for yearsnShe fought with her fathernI wonder if he knows she'll be alrightnBecause God can fix hernnI know I can't be forgivennWhy would I try?nI know I can't be forgivennI waste my timennThat guy that you talked to over the phonenYou said you were lonelynI gave you permission to call his partnIf you cook for me onlynnI left all my shirts in the closet upstairsnRight next to the bathroomnI wonder if you could make sure they were cleannBefore you return themnnI know I can’t be forgivennWhy would I try?nI know I can’t be forgivennWhy waste my time?nnBecause I can’t find my way homenAnd I don’t know where to go
