I hear my father's voice fill the frightened room
But I've added words he never used to use.
And when I see the eyes of fear look down and count the storm away,
There's so much kept inside I need to lose.
Ch/1
Forgive me my sins and those I've sinned against,
Forgive them all and let the score be shown as settled once and for all
It takes a greater hold to keep the fiery tongue
But strength is such a weakness don't you find?
And when I sense the burning tear run down and loose the dogs again,
For all my clarity I might as well be blind.
Ch/1
Forgive me my sins...
... once and for all.
Ch/2
And I'm trying to tell you it's ok, no point denying we could change it in a day,
And I'm dying to watch you make your way and leave the frightened room far behind.
I feel forgotten days haunt the shadows still
But they're not yours to ever know or see
And when I hear the echoes fly and fade and leave the past alone,
As close as we can get we may be free.
