lyrics

Remove the hands which wrap my neck so tightly
The fire burning in your eyes will fade, but slowly
The black cloud that surrounds us will follow your shadow
The positive energy I exude will torment you

Forgiveness is up to you
For I cannot stand by your side anymore
I’ve got my whole life to live seeking the truth
To be virtuous but only if you forgive yourself

You’ll struggle with all the air that you’re wasting while you speak
The heavy weight that you’re baring will crush you if you let it
Those you surround yourself with are no more than the trees
Falling silent offering no warm touch or release

Forgiveness is up to you
For I cannot stand by your side anymore
I’ve got my whole life to live seeking the truth
To be virtuous but only if you forgive yourself

Alone with the guilt that is bound to your fists
I’ll forget all your words but I will not forget you
In my hands I possess the final piece of your puzzle
A mirror reflects what you choose to ignore, it’s your problem.

Forgiveness is up to you
For I cannot stand by your side anymore
I’ve got my whole life to live seeking the truth
To be virtuous but only if you forgive yourself
