hey mom
i'm sorry i caused you such grief
i just couldn't see another way out
i guess i was just thinking about me
between a rock and a hard place was i
and i know it's not much of an excuse
but i was trying to figure things out
and i know i hurt you
and i'll be the first to agree
that you didn't deserve what i did
but i hope you'll forgive me
and things will be fine
i just wish i could promise
that i'll be alright
