Bachelor’s Betrayal

(ahhhh) I'm staring at my shoes outside this crowded room

Drinking cheap whiskey

to chase away the gloom

He's inside laughing, they're raising up a glass

But there is a shadow

that he thinks will

pass

I'm his best man,

I'm supposed to stand in line

But keeping this secret

feels like a crime

I saw him hold another hand tonight

Underneath the flashing party light

It breaks my heart to have to write this down

Before you put on that

white lace gown (I'm so sorry)

He thinks we're brothers,

keeping silent vows

But I see the future that he disallows

You deserve the truth,

even if it tears us down

Even if it breaks this godforsaken

town

My phone is shaking in my trembling hand

I never wanted to disrupt the plans

But you are the one who deserves the light

And he threw it all away tonight

I'm so sorry... (I had to tell you)
