Oh what I'd give to rewind the clock
With the knowledge that I now posses
Memories form blisters but given the chance
I'd smash this phone and burn that dress
But reality forever guards the way
A life left that must be lived
But this is the curse of remorse
It takes and takes but cannot give
Excusing mistakes as a work of fate
or the old- I'm different now
Will help us to forgive ourselves
And move on through the somehow
But what if our own is not enough
And your face flashes upon my eye
To remind me that in times of trouble
We weigh down those who should fly
To never have the chance to say
I never meant you harm
Is to be robbed of touching
When we stretch out our longest arm
To never have the last goodbye
To never speak a word
Is living slightly incomplete
To die alone, unheard.
For what are we when isolated?
We are only what we are
to the people who love us
Or the bright ones that form stars
How can one be content
to move on out of the shadow
When built up words cannot be spent
When you've lost sight of your own shadow
Forgiveness must be given
