Forgive Someone

Use a weapon of words.

Or a fight with your fists
But can you forgive someone?

Stand your ground and persist
And be the last one to blink
But can you forgive someone?

And if you do I'll run to you
Betray you with a word
I would slit my own throat first of all I will.

The black peat of the hills
When I was still ill
See this mess and forgive someone.

And then recall if you can
How all this even began
Forgive someone.

And if you do I'll run to you
Betray you with a word
I would slit my own throat first of all I will.

Our truth will die with me
Our truth will die with me.

Shorts and supports and faulty shower heads
At track and field we dreamt of our beds
In the bleachers you sit with your legs spread, smiling
"Here's one thing you'll never have".

Our truth will die with me
Our truth will die with me
Our truth will die with me.
