"Forgive Me"

Can you forgive me again?
I don't know what I said
But I didn't mean to hurt you

I heard the words come out
I felt like I would die
It hurt so much to hurt you

Then you look at me
You're not shouting anymore
You're silently broken

I'd give anything now
to keep those words from you

Each time I say something I regret I cry "I don't want to lose you."
But somehow I know that you will never leave me, yeah.

'Cause you were made for me
Somehow I'll make you see
How happy you make me

I can't live this life
Without you by my side
I need you to survive

So stay with me
You look in my eyes and I'm screaming inside that I'm sorry.

And you forgive me again
You're my one true friend
And I never meant to hurt you

"You hold the answers deep within your own mind.

Consciously you've forgotten it.
That's the way the human mind works.
Whenever something is too unpleasant,
Too shameful for us to entertain,
We reject it, We erase it from our memories.
But the answer is always there."

The pain that grips you,
The fear that binds you,
Releases life in me.
In our mutual shame we idolize,
To blind them from the truth,
That finds a way from who we are.
Please don't be afraid,
When the darkness fades away.
The dawn will break the silence,
Screaming in our hearts.
My love for you still grows.
This I do for you.
Before I try to fight the truth,
My final time.

"We're supposed to try and be real.
And I feel alone, and we're not together,
And that is real."

Can't wash it all away, can't wish it all away.
an't cry it all away, can't scratch it all away.

Lying beside you,
Listening to you breathe.
The life that flows inside of you,
Burns inside of me.
Hold and speak to me,
Of love without a sound.
Tell me you will live through this,
And I will die for you.
Cast me not away.
Say you'll be with me.
For I know I cannot bear it all alone.

"You're not alone, are you?"
"Never...never."

Can't fight it all away, Can't hope it all away.
Can't scream it all away, It just won't fade away.

Can't wash it all away, can't wish it all away.
Can't cry it all away, Can't scratch it all away.

Can't fight it all away, can't hope it all away.
Can't scream it all away, ooh it all away.
ooh it all away.

"But the answer is always there.
Nothing is ever really forgotten."

"God, please don't leave me."
"Because I'll die if you do."(5x)

I can't run anymore,

I fall before you.
Here I am.
I have nothing left.
Though I've tried to forget,
You're all that I am.
Take me home,
I'm through fighting it.
Broken, Lifeless,
I give up.
You're my only strength.
Without you,
I can't go on,
Anymore, Ever again

*My only hope (All the times I've tried)
My only peace (To walk away from you)
My only joy, My only strength,
(I fall into your abounding grace)
My only power, My only life,
(And love is where I am) My only love.

I can't run anymore.
I give myself to you,
I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
In all my bitterness,
I ignored all that's real and true.
All I need is you.
When night falls on me,
I'll not close my eyes.
I'm too alive,
And you're too strong.
I can't lie anymore,
I fall down before you.
I'm sorry, I'm sorry.

*

Constantly ignoring the pain consuming me.
But this time it's cut too deep.
I'll never stray again.

*(2x)

I know what you do to yourself,
But I won't be home again.

Please, please forgive me,
Isn't someone missing me?
I'm all alone.
Though I'd die to know you love me,
You won't try for me, not now.
Even though I'm the sacrifice,
[CHORUS]

Isn't someone missing me?
Isn't something missing?
Am I so insignificant...?
Am I that unimportant...?
You forgot me long ago.
You won't cry for my absence, I know -

"Isn't something missing?"
And, barely conscious, you'll say to no one:
Maybe someday you'll wake up,
But I won't be home again.
Please, please forgive me,
I breath deep and cry out:
"Isn't something missing?
Isn't someone missing me?"

[CHORUS]

And if I bleed, I'll bleed,
Knowing you don't care.
And if I sleep just to dream of you
I'll wake without you there,
Isn't something missing?
Isn't something...

[CHORUS]

I wanted you to know
I love the way you laugh
I wanna hold you high and steal your pain away
I keep your photograph;
I know it serves me well
I wanna hold you high and steal your pain

The pain that grips you,

The fear that binds you,
Releases life in me.
In our mutual shame we idolize,
To blind them from the truth,
That finds a way from who we are.
Please don't be afraid,
When the darkness fades away.
The dawn will break the silence,
Screaming in our hearts.
My love for you still grows.
This I do for you.
Before I try to fight the truth,
My final time.

Can't wash it all away, can't wish it all away.
an't cry it all away, can't scratch it all away.

Lying beside you,
Listening to you breathe.
The life that flows inside of you,
Burns inside of me.
Hold and speak to me,
Of love without a sound.
Tell me you will live through this,
And I will die for you.
Cast me not away.
Say you'll be with me.
For I know I cannot bear it all alone.

Can't fight it all away, Can't hope it all away.
Can't scream it all away, It just won't fade away.


Can't wash it all away, can't wish it all away.
Can't cry it all away, Can't scratch it all away.


Can't fight it all away, can't hope it all away.
Can't scream it all away, ooh it all away.
ooh it all away.

I've been looking in the mirror for so long.
That I've come to believe my souls on the other side.
All the little pieces falling, shatter.
Shards of me,
To sharp to put back together.
To small to matter,
But big enough to cut me into so many little pieces.
If I try to touch her,
And I bleed,
I bleed,
And I breathe,
I breathe no more.

Take a breath and I try to draw from my spirits well.
Yet again you refuse to drink like a stubborn child.
Lie to me,
Convince me that I've been sick forever.
And all of this,
Will make sense when I get better.
Well I know the difference,
Between myself and my reflection.
I just can't help but to wonder,
Which of us do you love.
So I bleed,
I bleed,
And I breathe,
I breathe no...
Bleed,
I bleed,
And I breathe,
I breathe,
I breathe-
I breathe no more.

[Piano Solo Ending]

[Guitar Solo Open]

I took their smiles and I made them mine.
I,I sold my soul just to hide the light.
And now I see what I really am,
A thief a whore, and a liar.
I run to you,
Call out your name,
I see you there, father away.

I'm numb to you - numb and deaf and blind.
You give me all but the reason why.
I reach but I feel only air at night.
Not you, not love, just nothing.
I run to you,
Call out your name,
I see you there, father away.

Try to forget you,
But without you I feel nothing.
Don't leave me here, by myself.
I can't breathe.
I run to you,
Call out your name,
I see you there, father away.

I run to you,
Call out your name,
I see you there, father away,
Farther away,
Father away,
Father away,
Father away,
Father away.
