You blew up like a bomb so many times I lost count
I pick up all your pieces, burn my palms and don't drown
I love you
But it's hard not to hate you sometimes
While everybody sees us
They think it's all fine

You loved me as much as you could
As if love was enough
Your words cut me deeper than any knife could
That brave smile I put on for show
How could anyone know
I fought myself for years just to let it all go

Forgiveness
Forgive and don't forget
Forgiveness

My body's been on fire so long you burned me to stone
Chiseled every part of me
So fragile but sharp
I'm fearful of the mirror
I'm afraid
I'll see you
You built a house of cards for me
But I was the glue

You loved me as much as you could
As if love was enough
Your words cut me deeper than any knife could
That brave smile I put on for show
How could anyone know
I fought myself for years just to let it all go

Forgiveness
Forgive and don't forget
Forgiveness
Forgive and don't forget

I've lied so many times I don't know what's true
But all I've ever known is I just
Wanted to be seen by you
By you
