Lyrics
You Are Forgiven
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Every lump inside your throat
Every crumpled little note
Every idle dial tone
Every hook you hung it on
Everything you should have said
Everything you said instead
On the stairs and in the halls
Everywhere but where he was
Anything you tried to do
Any way he looked at you
He was never one to praise
Anybody to his face
Anything he should have said
Anything he said instead
In the empty corridor
Anywhere but where you were
You are
You are forgiven
You are
You are
You are forgiven
Looked in the mirror, couldn't believe what you saw
He is as near to you now as he ever was
Grinding your teeth, trying to sleep it off
Waking up with an aching jaw
You are
You are
You are forgiven
