I don't forgive the words you said, They dance all night around my head
I won't forget your hands on me guiding my hands on you, cause these are the things i wish weren't true
i wont unfeel the knife in my hand, the noose on my neck, the gun to my temple
I will never unsee the world changing from coal to gold
and I want to forgive
and I want to forgive
and I want to forgive
Why can't I forget
and I don't want to feel
and I don't want to feel
and I don't want to feel
I hold my regrets
and I wanted to forgive my being mostly, for its will to live
So I gave it all up
willingly I might add
So I could have control
No one could take what I had left
I lost all that I hadn't wanted
so it couldn't be taken and flaunted
while leaving me empty
hurting others around me
I used him before he could use me
like he used them
and I wanted to forget
and I wanted to forget
and I wanted to forget
I hold no regrets from that eternal night.
