Forgiveness

You hurt me bad this time

No coming back

And I cried 'till I couldn't cry

Another heart attack

If I lay on the floor

maybe I'll wake up

And 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 sun

If I never look up

maybe I'll never notice

And you

you want forgiveness

But I

I just can't do it yet

There's still a thread that runs from your body to mine

And you can't break what you don't see

an invisible line

If I follow it down

would 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 begun

If it's all up to us

we might as well give up

And you

you want forgiveness

(I can barely hang on to myself)

But I

I just can't give you that

(I can't give you

I can't give you that)

And you

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 twisted

Forgiving is not forgetting

Don't you go and get it twisted

Forgiving is not forgetting

No

it's not forgetting

No

I'll never forget it

no

And you

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

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)
