So we can understand
How you ended up in this mess,
Accidentally or by your own hand.
Did you use the common sense
That resides inside your skull,
Or did you make a decision
That proves your wits are dull?
Don't beat around the bush;
Explain, without omission.
The truth is what we're after,
Not some made-up rendition.
We know it may be difficult;
Consequences may be tough.
Go on, tell us what happened—
We've waited long enough.
