I So Hate Consequences
Basically being human means facing consequences for your actions. I was about to say that it was one of the "joys" of being an adult. But I realized that I've watched my friends introduce their children to the reality of consequences about as early as they can possibly understand—often before the kid can even talk. A lifetime of consequences—it's a lot to swallow. So what's the difference now that we're adults? Being an adult means you don't get to cry about it. More than that, we accept the consequences of our actions with grace. Now THAT'S tough.

And I so hate consequences
And running from you is what my best defense is
Consequences
Oh God, don’t make me face up to this
Cause I know that I let you down
And I don’t want to deal with that

And after all of my alibis desert me
I just want to get by
I don’t want nothing to hurt me
I had no idea where my head was at
But if my heart says I’m sorry can we leave it at that
Because I just want for all of this to end
