Congratulations

You have invented a new kind of stupid
A 'damage you can never undo' kind of stupid
An 'open all the cages in the zoo' kind of stupid
'Truly, you didn't think this through?' kind of stupid

Let's review;
You took a rumor, a few, maybe two people knew and refuted it by sharing an affair of which no one has accused you

I begged you to take a break, you refused to

So scared of what your enemies will do to you
You're the only enemy you ever seem to lose to

You know why Maxwell can do what he wants?
He doesn't dignify school-yard taunts with a response!

So yeah, congratulations!

[JIMMY]

You've redefined your legacy

Congratulations

 

[MADDIE]

It was an act of political sacrifice!

 

[JIMMY]

Sacrifice?

I languished in a loveless marriage in America
I lived only to read your letters
I look at you and think 'God, what have we done with our lives and what did it get us?'

That doesn't wipe the tears or the years away
But I'm back in the city and I'm here to stay

And you know what I'm here to do?

 

[MADDIE]

Jimmy

 

[JIMMY]

I'm not here for you

I know my brother like I know my own mind
You will never find anyone as trusting or as kind

And a million years ago he said to me 'this one's mine'
So I stood by

Do you know why?

I love my brother more than anything in this life
I will choose his happiness over mine everytime

Gregory

 

[MADDIE]

Jimmy

 

[JIMMY]

Is the best thing in our lives
So never lose sight of the fact that you have been blessed with the best groom

Congratulations
For the rest of your life
Every sacrifice you make is for my brother
Give him the best life

Congratulations
