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.
I'm just one of many
Gave a love in vain
Sold it out for pennies
Saved up all my reign (rain)
What do you want from me
The ocean or the sea
The salt inside the rising tide
Tears you got from me
Got from me
Got from me, yeah
One day I'll be ready
To take what could be mine
Everything I'd buried
I lay out on the line
What d'you want to see
The truth or mystery
A blinding light, a blackest night
They're both inside of me
Inside me
Inside me, yeah
I'm just one of many
Took a love in vain
Sold it out for pennies
Saved up all my reign (rain)
What d'you want from me
The truth or mystery
The salt inside the rising tide
Tears you got from me
Got from me
Got from me, yeah
I don't want to be forgiven
All I want is to be free
I know I'll never be forgiven
I know I'll never be free
