Shards

I tried moving with grace At the pinnacle of our failure But you were only saving face And after all of our mistakes And all the changes I'm still the same I thank God for all my strenght And now I'm much better off today Though it cost me so much pain Now you show up and you say Could you not forgive? And can you not forget? Bitterness is no remedy in sorting Through this pile of glass You ask me to forgive And say you'll be my friend Your ignorance is the malady In sorting through these Shards of broken glass It's all painfully cliché How you wanted to play the savior Without owning any blame You might've dodget the ricochet But there are dues that you left unpaid And it'll all come back one day And I knew much better than to wait 'Cause we lost a losing game And it calls for two to play Could you not forgive? And can you not forget? Bitterness is no remedy in sorting Through this pile of glass You ask me to forgive And say you'll be my friend Your ignorance is the malady In sorting through these shards A borrowed olive branch is no apology And you can take back All of you new-found chinese philosophy But can you answer this Who do you think you were? And who do you think you are? I put all your lies to rest In the graveyard of my heart How can you ask me Could you not forgive? And can you not forget? Bitterness is no remedy in sorting Through this pile of glass You ask me to forgive 'Cause you want to be my friend But your ignorance is the malady In sorting through these Shards of broken glass I'll never forget What you'll never regret I'll never forget What you'll never regret I'll never forget What you'll never regret
