Birthday Party, The (2025)

[bunniefuu]

Come in.

I'm sorry, sir.

Something has happened.

It's about your son.

Sir.

We found him.

Marcos, I'm so sorry.

Just leave me alone.

Sofia,

my little girl.

I am here at our house,

writing my thoughts

just before everyone arrives

for your party.

I've missed you so much.

I want you to know that I don't

like what I have to do,

but I have to do it.

I'm sure you'll understand,

that you'll agree

with me in the end.

We'll do what needs to be done,

and we'll carry on.

That's what a family does best.

That's what makes us special.

Can't wait to put my arms

around you.

I said I wasn't

available for anyone today.

Yes, sir.

But it's really important.

Just tell me

where they are.

29 North, 33 East.

They're already right there.

No, no.

Tell Stavros there's

no turning back.

That's just rumors.

Listen, we we are

the f*cking pirates.

Just write down what I say.

Stavros crossed today

or never come back.

I know the pass is clean.

Don't listen to anyone, Marcos.

Send me a telex

with his position,

after they have crossed.

Good morning my boy.

The bath is ready sir.

Thank you, Marisa.

Run down to her.

Take Icarus with you.

-It's an honor.

-Welcome sir.

-Very nice to see you again.

-Nice to see you too.

-Carlos. I don't believe it.

-Hi.

Thank you, Jack.

Master's orders, no commercial

allowed on the island.

Your daughter looks beautiful.

Hello, Kostas.

Woo, woo!

Sofia!

Sofia.

I'm so sorry, sir.

I... It's because of the baby.

We don't sleep well at night.

-Yanis, right?

-Yeah.

Yes, sir.

She's Yanis.

She's a month-old today,

Mr. Marcos.

It's okay.

I know it's hard at first,

but tuck in your shirt

and get your sh*t together.

Thank you, sir.

It won't happen again.

Of course it won't.

Impressive, Marcos.

Congratulations.

It's an exact copy of a room

at Mount Sinai.

Even a little better, maybe.

Is there something I don't

know, dear?

No, I'm fine, don't worry.

It's just

that I don't want to entrust

everything to a damn Greek army

helicopter, that's all.

I feel safer with all this here.

And I also still

have my flare g*n.

Come on.

I'd feel much better if I put

some of this equipment on you.

You're the only man I ever let

unbutton my shirt.

Don't tell Sofia

about any of this.

I don't want her to worry

for no reason.

As you wish.

I saw her a moment ago

on the pier.

She looked beautiful

and wild like her father.

Sofia, 25 already, unbelievable.

It's not easy being your

daughter, you know.

Okay, let's see.

Breathe.

And let the air out slowly.

Okay.

Daniel would be 28 now.

He'd be boss

of 10,000 employees,

and I'd be able

to start resting.

Finally.

I'm fine, Patrick.

Really, my friend.

Thank you for coming.

I don't like the sound of your

right clunk.

But at the end of the day,

if you don't destroy yourself,

no one will.

How have you been?

You've been gone

for too many years.

How have you been?

Come on!

Just been gone for four years.

Well, I missed you.

I missed you, too.

How are you?

Like, how is it all going here?

Well, you know.

I mean, the first few days,

it's like a paradise.

But any longer

than that, it feels like a cage.

So...

Yeah.

But I'm good.

Better than ever, maybe.

Marisa!

f*ck.

I have to go

or my father will k*ll me.

Or my father would k*ll you.

Oh, yeah, well, I'd rather

have my father k*ll me.

Anyway, listen, why don't you

take me with you when you leave?

Yeah, you wanna come?

See you.

Hi.

No, I'm in London.

Yes.

It's a safe line.

Yeah.

And you'll have to accept it.

It's a safe line.

Yeah.

And you'll have to accept it.

I'm gonna go all the way

with this baby.

Go all the way with this baby.

My time has come.

Now Patrick, you're going to

have to excuse me.

Okay, Marcos.

Great Timoleon, my friend.

How are yo so, long time.

I'm so sorry my wife

couldn't come.

She stayed in the palace taking

care of her father.

Anyway, I'm going to

introduce you, Olga,

my personal assistant.

It's a great pleasure

to meet you.

How is General Franco?

Where is your daughter, Sofia?

You tell me.

Still working, Mr. Forster.

Patrikios.

-Good to see you.

-Good to see you too.

Yeah, this was

just a few days ago.

I wonder if the marquis came

for more than just the party.

You are the expert here.

Who is this Englishman

over there?

He's nobody.

There he is.

-Our Champion, my boy, Carlos.

-Marcos.

-How are you?

-How are you?

Bravo.

My friends, excuse me, I must

go greet my wife.

I'm looking forward

to meeting her.

I'm such a fan of the signora.

Of course, Olga, of course.

Right now, I'll tell her to come

over and say hello.

Thank you.

Forster, come with me

to my office.

Well, we should've

seen that coming.

We all know what

Marcos is like.

The wealthy bourgeoisie is our

irreconcilable enemy.

His wealth is founded

on our poverty.

Stalin.

A declared enemy is always

much easier to fight.

You know, they've already made

a movie about me, Forster.

You mean "The Godfather?"

No, it's about a big shark.

Surprised to see the fascist

marquis here.

Have a seat.

Never judge a man who makes

business with another man.

Aren't you doing business

with me?

By the way, I haven't read it.

I've been working on this for

two years.

It's your life

we're talking about.

Aren't you interested?

Yeah, I really don't understand.

I mean, I thought you called me

here to give me an answer.

Why am I here?

Julius Caesar was the first

Roman emperor to mint coins

with his face on them.

He wanted to forge his legend.

He wanted to be talked about

from South Germania to Africa.

Why do you think

that was, Forster?

Because it was good

for business.

In any case, the first emperor

was Octavian, sir.

Caesar was a dictator.

Oh.

You're very well educated.

But the things that are most

important are those learned

only through experience.

Why the f*ck do you

think I invited you

to my daughter's party?

-Papa!

-Oh!

- Darling.

- I missed you.

Hello.

When did the two

of you last meet?

Uh, New York.

Or London.

Yeah, I-I think.

So that's what you two

have been cooking up.

Is it pure fiction

or is it based on true events,

Mr. Forster?

Sofia.

-Yeah?

-Please, put on some clothes

and go downstairs and say hello.

But the party's

not until tonight.

I know.

I'll leave you to it then.

See you at the party.

I'll talk about it later,

Forster.

-See you later!

-Hey, we're gonna go change.

Check,

check, one, two, one, one.

Appetite, my friend, appetite.

It is the main source

of phosphorus

and phosphato in the world.

Necessary for the production of

fertilizantes minerales,

which is the future

of farming in the whole world.

Good, the 85% of the appetite is

in our part of Sahara.

The part, just the part Henry

wants us to leave.

My friend.

Oh, thanks.

Ah, good.

Um, you can keep the ports,

all of them,

from Laayoune to Dakhla.

We go out without one b*llet.

We leave everything for Morocco.

And then you and I and Henry,

we get the f*cking

apartheid mines.

I know what it's like to sell

something that you

don't really have.

Come on.

Please.

Just let's go for it.

Look, Franco is almost dead,

it's going to be over very soon.

No trial, no deal with the past.

We'll leave the Sahara and I

promise I prepare everything

for Henry to put us

in f*cking NATO.

All the airports too.

Okay, take them,

take the airports.

I know you

want my son.

Good, take him too.

My boy's clean, f*cking clean.

I see you brought all your

merchandising here, interesting.

But still, my little girl can be

tougher to convince than

a New York Banker.

That's it.

I won't wait around

for his permission.

I'm going now.

Honey, wait,

don't confront him.

It's the world today.

By the way,

who's this Jack coming with you?

I can't say I like him.

I can understand that, but you

know, he's one of

the best lawyers in New York.

-Oh.

-Mm-hmm.

Yeah, we've already

reached that point.

Oh, Marcos hasn't told me

anything,

but I'm not really surprised.

After you, my dear, there won't

be anyone to put up with him.

Excuse me, Doctor.

Ma'am, Mr. Marcos

wants to see you.

Mmm, at last.

-Not now.

-What?

This is the reason why I'm here.

I'll tell you about it later.

Thank you, Jack.

Marisa, you look so beautiful.

I bought you this one,

when we met in Madrid.

Remember?

Hm.

Tell me something, is this part

of your plan to humiliate me

even further?

It's all right.

I'm going to accept your terms.

That Jack of yours knows how to

put zeros on a piece of

paper, that's for sure.

You shouldn't have come

with him.

You won't be needing him.

Just like that?

Are you all right?

Yes, honey.

Don't worry.

I'm fine.

I feel like I'm at the

beginning of something.

We're going to be divorcees.

Like in the movies.

American movie-style divorcees.

I'll always be your best

friend in the world.

Your generosity

always scared me more

than your temper ever did.

Your father once told me that

a marriage based on love is

like a sandcastle.

Well, let's make our divorce

like a nice beach where we

can get together every

once in a while.

Mm-mm.

Just one thing, darling, I'm

asking you to help me with

Sofia tonight.

I need you.

Don't you remember your

daughter doesn't really like me?

It never had anything

to do with you.

It's her way of punishing me.

I know deep down she knows how

much you love her.

I'm serious, Olivia, I'm going

to sign your papers,

and you're gonna help

me with this.

You made it,

Mr. Forster.

Are you gonna get in?

I'm afraid I don't swim with

sharks around.

Will you help me out?

I wonder what your father's

gonna say about that.

He's not gonna

like it at first.

That's for sure.

But when he realizes,

when he really understands that

he's gonna be a grandfather.

Papa's getting softer.

He's getting softer in age.

No, he's getting older,

that's for sure.

Softer, I don't know.

He is.

I'm going to do it.

It's my time.

And I'm finding my place

and you have a place with me.

If you're not a chicken.

Are you a coward?

Come here, baby.

It all begins and ends here.

Hm.

I hope someone is watching.

Come inside me.

Come inside me.

I'm serious, Olivia.

I'm going to sign your papers.

And you're gonna help

me with this.

I know Sofia is pregnant,

and I'm not going to allow it.

I need to protect my legacy.

Okay, I can try.

Hmm.

At first I was afraid,

I was petrified

Kept thinking, I can never

live without you by my side

And I spent so many nights

thinking how you did me wrong.

And I grew strong, and now I

know how to get along...

Sofia!

Hello, I'm here.

Happy birthday to me.

You're looking so, so

beautiful tonight.

You look so beautiful,

glad to see you.

Sofia, happy birthday!

You look gorgeous, darling.

I have so much to tell you.

Don't tell me, please.

I love you.

I'm so happy to see you.

It's been a long time.

Oh, happy birthday,

Sofia.

You look so wonderful.

I see we both came

for the gifts.

Welcome to my island,

most of you anyway.

I'll be brief, unlike Comrade

Fidel, who couldn't come today.

He's too busy loading sugar

on my ships.

Yes, we're here to

have a good time.

It's been years

since I've had a party here.

You know why.

I miss him, we all do.

He'd be there back there,

dying of embarrassment.

My son.

My boy.

f*ck, I never thought I'd still

be alive in my 60s.

Since that caravan in Anatolia

where I was born in a tent

and almost died as a child and

those weeks in the desert,

eh Patrick?

Friends, underneath our suits

and our elegant dresses,

we are all naked.

Sofia, my dear,

I'm here to give you the world.

You, and only you

will be living proof

of my existence.

We're all going to

remember you, Papa.

Darling, it's your birthday,

and I brought

you something very special.

You'll never forget this day.

None of us will.

Baby...

Oh my God!

Happy birthday, Sofia

It's all yours.

-You like it?

-Oh my God!

Do I get to keep them both?

That unicorn isn't the only

animal with us here tonight.

It's a hard world

to get it break in

All the good things

have been taken

But girl there are ways to

make certain things pay

Though I'm dressed

in these rags

I'll wear sable someday

Please welcome

our English friend!

Where's Sofia?

Hello dear.

Happy birthday, Sofia,

this one is for you.

It ain't no use,

holding me down

Sticking around

- So baby

- Baby

- Remember

- Remember

It's my life

and I'll do what I want

It's my mind

and I'll think what I want

It's my life

and I'll do what I want

It's my mind

and I'll think what I want

Show me I'm wrong

Hurt me sometime

But someday,

I'll treat you real fine

Wooh, I love you!

Wooh, I love you Eric!

Sofia.

One minute.

Sofia,

it's me, Olivia.

Get out, get out.

How are you feeling, baby?

Shh.

- Just don't.

- I hooked up

with two of them.

It was nothing special at all.

I usually don't even

like Spanish men.

I really prefer Italian,

but this one, Carlos.

Did you see his abs?

I mean, oh my God.

Did you see Olivia?

She looks like sh*t.

She's only here to squeeze

whatever she can get

out of Marcos.

But time is up, baby!

Don't listen to them.

Thank you, Sofia.

Let's go and change.

Okay?

Mm-hmm.

I've been thinking

Carlos, he's an impressive kid.

Your father is thrilled

with him.

But this time,

the guy is actually worth it.

Really worth it.

And besides, the two of you

already know each other well.

Don't you think so?

Ah, ah, ah

Oh darling.

Your father.

Oh, baby.

Will you help me?

Happy birthday to me too!

All right, I need two things.

I need a drink, and I need to

find out who these belong to.

Thank you!

And now ladies

and gentlemen,

a short break

from the band.

The buffet is open.

La gout is k*lling me.

My doctor told me that surgery

is not possible for this?

There is no surgery option for

gout, that's true.

The only thing

you can do is avoid

seafood, red meat and alcohol.

Come on, doctor, we are at the

time we have left.

I knew where we

were the whole time.

You overreacted, all of you.

It was my farm after all.

Yes, but it was my daughter.

I thought about sh**ting you.

You were what, 15, 16?

Yeah, something like that, yeah.

I've never seen my

daughter as radiant and as happy

as she was that summer.

Since she left for college,

I somehow lost her.

When I look at her,

I know, I want to believe she's

still there, hiding

inside herself, away from all

those assholes around her.

I believe God makes children

selfish, so parents can learn

how to live without them.

If they stayed as adorable as

when they were small, it would

be impossible to let them go.

But you are different, Carlos.

But I'm not like the

rest of my family.

Specifically, not like my

grandfather, Mr. Timoleon.

I'm not like him,

and I like your daughter.

Very much, you know that?

Yes.

I carry that summer inside me,

too.

But sir, let me say, I'm not

just a gift you can

give away with a pretty bow on.

I'm very fond of you, my boy.

You have all my respect, and I

have never put a bow on you yet.

Continue learning Greek,

just in case.

Whatever happens here tomorrow,

we'll always take care of

that kid.

He's a magnificent young man.

Of course, sir.

She's waiting

for you at the office.

Very good.

Are you backing down?

I thought you were more

practical than that, Olivia.

Marcos, I don't want to go

through with this.

I'm so sorry, but I love you

both too much to do it.

Precisely.

Love is what it's all about.

To do good for love.

I told you, you can have

whatever you ask.

And then go on with your life.

You k*ll me with

your generosity.

Women like

you can't stand moderation.

They need constant excess.

Can you forget about me

for a second?

Marcos, we are talking

about your daughter.

You have no one else left apart

from her.

Now you're telling me how

to think?

I swore to myself that I would

never abandon my kids.

What are you talking about?

I need to take Sofia away from

her empty dreams,

keep her away from those people,

and from the f*cking drugs.

I know, I'm certain that her

future and the future

of my legacy are the last thing

she wants right now.

If she even knows what she

wants, all the whining,

all the nonsense, come on,

honey, you know it as well.

Her future is decided with

or without your help.

My father abandoned me, I will

not do the same to my daughter.

Oh, okay, forget about me

signing anything.

If you want to keep living like

a queen at my expense,

you're going to have to earn it.

Marcos, you don't

understand anything.

I don't care about your money,

that's not why I'm here.

You know that, not everything in

life is f*cking business.

I hate your money.

Baby...

I don't wanna hurt you.

Let me save you from yourself.

Hmm?

We still have time.

Don't you see?

It's not over yet.

Get out of here.

You insist on pushing me away.

I won't say it again.

I will never leave you.

Sir, the band is ready.

Step back, step back,

step, sorry.

What the hell is going on?

Sir...

Apologies, my friends.

These things happen.

Poor fool.

A few years ago,

we shot at paparazzi.

That's right, we shot at them.

We didn't sh**t at them,

we shot at their balloon.

They were Japanese.

Paparazzi flying

over the island.

Remember, Kostas?

We had to fish them out

of the sea.

A hot air balloon.

It seems, it's good business to

sell naked pictures of myself.

Sofia, what are you doing?

Stop it.

Dema, bring the cake.

Olivia, she's on our side.

Happy birthday to you

Happy birthday to you

Happy birthday, dear Sofia

Happy birthday to you

Woo.

Thank you.

Make a wish.

So, you fought

in the w*r, Kostas?

-Yes.

-Against the Italians?

No.

Well, great then,

against the Nazis.

No.

Come on Mr. Forster,

he's waiting for you.

In a place like this

they finished with Rasputin.

It's not about the money,

you know.

Okay, Forster, okay.

It's always about money.

Christmas has come early

for you this year, my friend.

It's all there in writing, it's

clear, and you can have it all.

We'll publish it unedited?

Never ask for anything,

Forster, especially from those

more powerful than you.

This frees you of

any legal liability.

You can say, I'm the cousin of

Hitler, or I was born a woman.

You only need

to put in a number.

Ah, allow me.

But that baby will

never be born.

You won't be my son-in-law,

and you'll never see her again.

You know, Marcos, sometimes

there are things

in life that can't be bought.

I'm giving you a better start

than you could ever dream of.

You can even write

about all that's happening

here right now in your f*cking

book if you like.

Pick it up or you're not

getting off this island.

I could bury you along with all

those other fools.

Or you can f*ck my daughter

a few more times

and then fly away

for you to write about

whatever the f*ck you want.

Your future is lying there.

Pick it up.

You have a number,

make sure you put it on

the dotted line.

Mr. Forster,

everything all right?

Sofia?

Hey, do we have enough photos?

Yeah, yeah,

don't worry.

It's important that we have

one with him.

Of course.

Come on.

I see right through

the expensive suits and

fancy dresses

at this party, and when I look

at you, I see nothing but

another parasite.

Stay away from my family.

Take your dollars and stuff them

in your filthy pockets and

pray, just pray, that I never

catch you snooping around again.

I know how this feels, maybe

better than you do.

I've been missing him my whole

life, you know that.

I know what he's like.

But the honest truth is

that I love him.

Marcos makes everything

else disappear.

Cold.

Pain.

Loneliness.

Everything.

Nothing could get to me

while I was there.

Wrapped in his warmth.

And you know, I think we could

have a few good years left.

You are the most dignified

woman I've ever met.

But-but now she's yours so you

can call her whatever you want.

I'm very fond of her, I had to

break the amniotic sac myself

as she was coming out because

her mother was really struggling

with the during labor.

Yeah, Papa say you're quite

the veterinarian.

Yes, I remember that you used

to love our horses.

I know, I used to love going

to the stables with you.

I fought in the

Battle of Athens,

I saw the Swastika waving

on the Acropolis.

How far away did you see the

Swastika from?

That's right, distance is a

very important thing, my friend.

Now you have to decide your own

distance from this place.

It's a world

you won't belong to.

Huh?

Timoleon, you and myself,

we come from totally

different places.

You are a writer,

and he respects you more

than you think.

His suffer can change your life.

Do you really want to become

Timoleon's hated son-in-law,

huh?

Do you really want to get on

that boat?

Hmm.

Thank you.

Get out of here while you can.

Uh, Sofia, you know that our

parents want us to...

You know my father told me that

he was talking to your father--

Yeah, for f*ck's sake, it's

not the Middle Ages.

I mean...

But I think we can be

really close friends.

Now?

I have to admit,

this is my place.

Take it off, girl!

So impressive.

I also have a present for you.

Forgive me, Sofia.

After that day, I haven't really

known how to deal with you.

I didn't even know how

to talk to you.

I miss him, too, Dad.

When Daniel died,

you started to clean

his room like a crazy person.

Remember you put away his stuff

and all his clothes into

that chest.

And Daniel Demetrius was rubbing

the walls with bleach?

And you bolted up his door?

I tried to mold him, to change

him, tried to make

him in my own image, impossible.

You always needed that boy more

than he needed you, Papa.

What about me?

You never needed me.

You sent me away.

I have wonderful news.

Papa.

Do you already know?

That f*cking b*tch.

I don't need Olivia to tell me

what's going on in my own house

I've known about it all along.

You're not bringing

that child into this world.

End of story.

I know who's it is.

Yeah, because you have been

spying on me.

Just like you did with Mama,

right?

Putting your little

bugs everywhere,

making her believe

that life wasn't worth living.

Go, go to hell!

Sofia, our family is not like

any other family.

I will not leave a mess

behind after I die.

You're not having that baby.

And that guy, I opened my life

to him and he does this,

he's a f*cking b*stard.

And that sh*t you put in your

body, I know what it is.

What kind of baby would that be?

Have you thought about that?

I'm not a junkie.

It's the same sh*t you said

to Mama.

You're going to stay here with

me, everything will be fine.

It's for your own good.

I don't need

your permission.

I'm going to announce it to the

press tomorrow morning.

I have it all planned out.

With Ian, yeah?

Ian Forster.

A new Timoleon heir is coming

into the world.

You just think I'm stupid.

Yeah, I sold the exclusives.

It's done.

And did you really think

that the musician

was the only photographer I

brought to the party?

I don't need your permission.

Everyone needs my permission.

All that sh*t

from your past is over.

Your Englishman and I are going

to come to an agreement today.

No one is going

to announce anything to anyone.

Everything's going to be fine,

and you're going to be happy,

no matter how

much you insist otherwise.

And that Forster guy,

he's mine.

I know you'd rather it'd be me

than Daniel.

That boat trip,

right after Mom died.

Do you remember?

Me and Danny,

we thought that we were running

away because you k*lled her.

Oh, I'm fed up with you women,

all my life surrounded by

crazy women, bitter women, with

insane thoughts in their head.

I never regret being unfaithful

to your mother.

Not once, not once, not at all.

Do you remember the seagulls?

You were up at the deck sh**ting

at them with your r*fle.

And you were drunk and naked.

Danny didn't dare to go up, but

I did and I saw the dead birds

floating around the boat.

And you looked at me

and you had a hard on.

That never happened.

Papa, you had a hard on.

Never, you're sick.

Oh my God, you can't be as

crazy as your mother.

I don't deserve it!

I'm so tired.

Everything's gonna be all

right, sweetheart.

Button up, my friend.

Come.

Come in.

Come in!

What are you thinking?

-We're the same age.

-Yes, I know.

Come on, my friend.

Go get some rest,

there's work to do tomorrow,

and I want this clean

and spotless by afternoon.

Yes, sir.

What are you thinking?

My time has come.

And you know what?

It's gonna be a girl.

I feel it.

Sir?

Is that them?

Yes, we're ready.

Go get her.

That's everything then.

Everything that's needed, right?

Yes.

You know what'll happen if you

speak about any of this.

Sir.

We can't find Sofia.

Lock the island down.

Sofia!

-Sofia!

-Sofia!

-Sofia!

-Sofia!

Sofia!

-There it is.

-Sofia, Sofia.

Push, push.

Sofia!

Sofia!

Okay, this is not funny,

guys.

Sofia!

Sofia!

Sofia!

Sofia!

Sofia, where

the f*ck is she?

Don't just stand

there, get me some activated

charcoal for a nasal gas tube.

One gram per kilo,

let's go with 50 for now.

Maybe we'll do it after.

Have you

ever done that?

Not, for years.

Okay, first

things first.

A stomach pump, quickly!

What is this place, Marcos?

What have you done?

Oh, my God.

It's gonna be all right.

It's gonna be all right.

Everything is gonna

be all right.

Oh, my baby.

She's stable now.

Still unconscious,

but it's all right now.

Sofia's pregnant, I want you

to take the baby away.

You have to do it now.

It's the best moment.

Now's the time.

When she recovers,

we'll tell her she lost it.

End of story.

You've really gone mad.

No, you don't understand,

I'm doing it for her.

If you don't do it,

the other guy will.

In fact, in 15 minutes,

he has orders to start.

I'd rather that you do it.

That's why I'm here after all

these years.

And just to make sure you also

call this village quack over.

I don't know you, Marcos,

or maybe I do.

I just don't like you anymore.

Would you stop being a prissy

f*cking f*gg*t for once

in your life?

Poor Marcos.

Sofia is not pregnant.

You raised a real

Timoleon, I'm afraid.

She's just like you.

A sweet-talking manipulator.

Jesus, what a mess.

This is the last time

we see each other.

Good.

f*ck you, Marcos.

I just hope you can forgive

yourself one day.

Patrick?

Now do as I told you,

I need to be sure.

Ouch.

Papa?

Have you done something to me?

What have you done to me?

Sweetie, I don't think it's

okay for you to get up.

Seven weeks ago, I found

out I was pregnant.

It was a beautiful thing.

It really was a beautiful thing.

Hmm, but then I lost it.

I lost a baby.

I didn't tell Ian

because I hoped that I would

get pregnant again

before he found out.

I loved him.

Baby,

can y'all understand me now?

Sometimes I get a little mad

Don't you know?

No one alive can

always be an angel

When things go wrong,

I seem to go bad

I'm just a soul

whose intentions are good

Hold on, please don't let me

be misunderstood

Baby, sometimes

I'm so carefree

With a joy

it's hard to hide it

And other times it seems

that all I ever have is worry

And then you're bound

to see my other side

I'm just a soul

whose intentions are good

Oh Lord, please don't let me

be misunderstood

I'm just a soul

whose intentions are good

Oh Lord, please don't let me

be misunderstood

Oh Lord, please don't let me

be misunderstood
