Harder To Forgive

I love the songs I hated when I was young

Because they take me back where I come from

When every broken heart seemed like the end

When everyone was someone different then

But I can't be alone in a crowded room

Where my thoughts, they run like water down a flume

There are days when I will let the darkness rise

I don't always choose to stay on the sunny side

Sometimes I pretend we never met (ooh)

Because it's harder to forgive than to forget

Sometimes it's harder to forgive

Yes, my life has seen some wasted time

I have suffered for the peace inside my mind

And some things are better left unsaid

While some things work out different when they're in your head

But I'm not sorry for the things I say

Sometimes I let my mouth just run away

And I believe that all souls are born kind

And that all love lost comes back in time

Sometimes I pretend we never met (ooh)

Because it's harder to forgive than to forget

Sometimes it's harder to forgive

And even if the world is really round

And all the maps are painted upside down

So if you stand in one place for too long

Everything around you will be gone

Well, I'm not gonna miss you when I'm gone

Now the part of me that's left wants you to know

That I'm not gonna jump towards the light

The ones who believe choose the night

Ooh, ooh

Ooh, ooh

Ah, ooh

Ah
