Intentions

I never meant to hurt you I didn't mean to make you cry
I know I don't deserve to, but I'm gonna try to make things right

I'm doing all I can to be a better man
I'm counting up the ones that I've let down
I'm laying down my pride and cleaning up inside
I want to show the world I've turned around

CHORUS:
The people I loved I treated like my victims
thought love was made of the best of my intentions

I memorized the answers but there wasn't one that I believed
I had a cure for cancer but I loved the burn of my disease

I set the world aflame and gave the world the blame if only they would join in on my show
Then everything would be revolving around me and I would have the sweetness of control

CHORUS
The best of my intentions
The best of my intentions

Bridge-
I love my mama and my daddy and my brother to and I love you- I never meant to hurt you
Does it hurt any less that I did my best? I guess not
No I never thought I was the villain thought I was the hero but I was still killing you while my own ego denied the addiction that caused the affliction dissension and tension

CHORUS
The best of my intentions
The best of my intentions
