lyrics
Hello
I might be late
To show up
to accept my fate
Where are we now
You said it's gone
But I know
It's just begun
And I won't know when things are fine
When you keep forging these tales all the time
There's no where I can feel alright
I understand now these crimes aren't mine
So,
Where to from here
Now you've left,
no time for tears.
Its my turn
to forgive
But this burden
Has the weight of years.
When I said that I was lost
You replied with eyes glossed.
I know you think it's all a lie.
It's not something you tried to hide
And I won't know when things are fine
When you keep forging these tales all the time
There's no where I can feel alright
I understand now these crimes aren't mine
These crimes aren't mine,
These crimes aren't mine,
These crimes aren't mine
And I won't know when things are fine
When you keep forging these tales all the time
There's no where I can feel alright
I understand now these crimes aren't mine
Oh, these crimes aren't mine,
Oh, these crimes aren't mine,
Oh, these crimes aren't mine
I might be late
To show up
to accept my fate
Where are we now
You said it's gone
But I know
It's just begun
And I won't know when things are fine
When you keep forging these tales all the time
There's no where I can feel alright
I understand now these crimes aren't mine
So,
Where to from here
Now you've left,
no time for tears.
Its my turn
to forgive
But this burden
Has the weight of years.
When I said that I was lost
You replied with eyes glossed.
I know you think it's all a lie.
It's not something you tried to hide
And I won't know when things are fine
When you keep forging these tales all the time
There's no where I can feel alright
I understand now these crimes aren't mine
These crimes aren't mine,
These crimes aren't mine,
These crimes aren't mine
And I won't know when things are fine
When you keep forging these tales all the time
There's no where I can feel alright
I understand now these crimes aren't mine
Oh, these crimes aren't mine,
Oh, these crimes aren't mine,
Oh, these crimes aren't mine
