Forgiveness
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.
If forgiveness ain't enough
And you never get what you want
Well, don't you think that
Something is strange?
So why don't you hold your tongue?
You had all the boys as your own
I'll never know if you made it home
I was standing there with my hands in my hair
I watched as you picked up your phone
I watched as you picked up your phone
It's late and you're heading up the stairs
And you're looking for something to wear
I've been catching up with the girl I used to love
And I just don't seem to care
I've got everything to lose
You don't aim, you just like to shoot
Yeah, I loved you first, and I know that it hurts
I'm sorry for what I did to you
I live with the things I chose to do
Yeah, I'm sorry for what I did to you
