The deal was signed in '99
Family looking on
Your two best men both in line
Never thought by now they'd both be gone
Unreachable, unteachable
Jack is now Jacqueline
You'd think with all that estrogen
Coursing through those veins
This better female version would've been more open to change
Sadly you'd be wrong
Some things go too long
So you move on
Your two best men gone
Your two best men and you remember when
They would each be there no matter what
If I had told you then you'd never see either again
You would have punched me out and said shut your fucking mouth
Proud and loyal
Loud and royal
William was always a soldier
No matter the task or what was asked
He never ever once told you no
Oh the deep conviction
From somewhere up above
It all came into question though
When he desperately announced he was in love
How do you respond?
A breaking of the bond
How do you move on?
Your two best men gone
Gone
No shield on the battlefield
Company's out of range
They're both beside you and neither yield
This is the dream that never changes
Was it disloyalty?
Was it treason?
Was it betrayal that ruled the day?
Feverishly searching through the dream for a reason
Sometimes life just gets in the way
I know that ain't much compensation
And it doesn't erase the past
Seems certain relationships
Aren't necessarily built to last
Still you're here in the weeds
The battle raging on
Just trying to figure out how to proceed with your
Two best men gone
Just trying to figure out how to proceed with your
Two best men gone
