Forgiven

Oh yes, I know this tension

that you speak of

We're in the palm of

a hand making a fist

It'd be best for one of us

to speak up

But we prefer to pretend it

does not exist

And you can't see past

the blood on my hands

To see that you've been

aptly damned

To fail and fail again

Cause we're all guilty of

the same things

We think the thoughts whether

or not we see them through

And I know that

I have been forgiven

And I just hope

you can forgive me too

So don't you dare blame me for

Prying open the door

That's unleashed the bitterness

That's here in the midst of this

Sometimes we live for no

one but ourselves

And what we've been striving for

Has turned into nothing more

Than bodies limp on the floor

Victims of falling short

We kiss goodbye the cheek

of our true love

And you can't see past

the blood on my hands

To see that you've been

aptly damned

To fail and fail again

Cause we're all guilty of

the same things

We think the thoughts whether

or not we see them through

And I know that

I have been forgiven

And I just hope

you can forgive me too

And you can't see past

the blood on my hands

To see that you've been

aptly damned

To fail and fail again

Cause we're all guilty of

the same things

We think the thoughts whether

or not we see them through

And I know that

I have been forgiven

And I just hope

you can forgive me too
