Boy, oh boy. This thing is qu-al-it-y. This slick piece of art was designed by Jake himself and features the handsome mug of every Commitment. Order soon to see the exclusive misspelling of the word "needed" on the inside fold. That mistake will be fixed on the next run, so ya know, you wouldn't want to miss that.

lyrics
So you’ve got pretty eyes
And you’ve got a curvy mouth
That don’t make up for all the bullshit
That you let spill out
You ain’t been on my mind
I Haven’t thought much about
Our time together since the night that I
Flipped the table on our falling out
You’ve been quick with the drinks
If the stories are true
Truth be told I can’t say that I laughed when I
Heard he laid into you
But sometimes life swings a glove
And I choked and I fell
But I pounded my chest, and I pulled on the ropes
And now I’m taking this fight to the bell
---
Cause I Know I am a better man than
The one that you insisted that I was in the past
And I’ve been feeling peace of mind
I Found the man I was trying to be he was
Gasping for breath when you were lying to me
You’ll have to find a way to sleep with yourself at night
When I’m not there by your side
---
So you play solid roles
You’ve got some tricks up your sleeve
But sooner or later you’ll have to figure out
Who the hell you really want to be
I’m not the center of the room
I count the cracks on the floor
But you can count on the fact I won’t be putting on an act
For some dickheads looking for more
---
As life pulls you down
You deserved more than this
The rumors and a poisoned kiss
A scream without a sound
You chose a fall from grace
To prove that you could make mistakes
But I won’t be your solid ground
