Forgiveness
You hurt me bad this time, no coming backAnd I cried till I couldn’t cry, another heart attackIf I lay on the floor, maybe I’ll wake upAnd I don’t pick up when you call ‘cause your voice is a gun
Every word is a bullet hole, shot a hole in the sunIf I never look up, maybe I’ll never notice
And you want forgivenessBut I, I just can’t do it yet
There’s still a thread that runs from your body to mineAnd you can’t break what you don’t see, an invisible lineIf I follow it down, will we just be alright?But it could take me all your life to learn to love
How I thought I could love someone, I haven’t even begunIf it’s all up to us, we might as well give up
And you want forgiveness (I can barely hang on to myself)But I, I can’t give you that (I can’t give you, I can’t give you that)And you want forgiveness (I’m afraid that I’ll have nothing left)But I, I just can’t do it yet (I can’t do, I just can’t do it yet)
Don’t you go and get it twistedForgiving is not forgettingNo, it’s not forgettingNo, I’ll never forget it, no
And you want forgiveness (I can barely hang on to myself)But I, I can’t give you that (I can’t give you, I can’t give you that)And you want forgiveness (I’m afraid that I’ll have nothing left)But I, I just can’t do it yet (I can’t do, I just can’t do it yet)
