Use this time to step aside And look around with your feeble eyes Use this time to forget me Use these days to lie awake And feel the loss of my embrace But don't use anymore of me And how do you say And how do you say "I forgive you"? And how do you know And how do you know When to choose to? And when to move along? Use your hands to feel the man I gave my plan and off you went To find someone new who is not me Use your favorite photograph To play the recent memory back Are you still as cold as I am? Well it started off a simple black and blue Hidden behind the untrue But now it's surfacing I need to be released From the love that was you From the love that was you Cause I want to say And I want to say "I forgive you" And I want to know And I want to know When to choose to And when to move along And when to move along

I might as well admit it That I still miss you I know what I said but it's Kind of hard for me And it's hurting me This is bigger than pride And I wanna give it another try I'm still torn in two But love made me make this decision so I'll forgive you But you really hurt me My heart wants to try us again I know you're only human But you almost destroyed me Our love was worth it Still I need a little more time I hope you learned a lesson 'Bout hurting the ones you really love 'Cause I was a soldier for you Would have done anything to prove it to you Maybe we can get on track Rekindle the love bring it back 'Cause there's nobody else for me My heart just wants to say this to you I'll forgive you But you really hurt me My heart wants to try us again I know you're only human But you almost destroyed me Our love was worth it Still I need a little more time I'll forgive you But you really hurt me My heart wants to try us again I know you're only human But you almost destroyed me Our love was worth it Still I need a little more time I got to figure this out We need a new start No more deceitful lies If someone told me we would be apart I would say you're foolish 'Cause God brought you to me I'll forgive you But you really hurt me My heart wants to try us again I know you're only human But you almost destroyed me Our love was worth it Still I need a little more time I'll forgive you But you really hurt me My heart wants to try us again I know you're only human But you almost destroyed me Our love was worth it Still I need a little more time

I forgive you, I forgive me Now when do i start to feel again I forgive you, I forgive me Now when do i start to feel again Cause the lights are on But I'm never home But I'll be back with a brand new attitude Cause I forgive you I forgive you We were just a couple of kids Trying to figure out how to live Doing it our way No shame, no blame Cause the damage is done And I forgive you I forgive you We were busy living the dream Never noticed the glass ceiling falling on us No shame, no blame Cause the damage is done And I forgive you I forgive you, I forgive me Now do I start to feel again If I hate you, what does that do So I breathe in and I count to 10 Cause the lights are on And I'm coming home Yes I am back With a new heart in my hand Cause I forgive you I forgive you We were just a couple of kids Trying to figure out how to live Doing it our way No shame, no blame Cause the damage is done And I forgive you I forgive you We were busy living the dream Never noticed the glass ceiling falling on us No shame, no blame Cause the damage is done And I forgive you I forgive you For every time that I cried Over some stupid thing you did to hurt me That's alright, yeah I forgive you I forgive you We were just a couple of kids Trying to figure out how to live Doing it our way No shame, no blame Cause the damage is done And I forgive you I forgive you We were just a couple of kids Trying to figure out how to live Doing it our way No shame, no blame Cause the damage is done And I forgive you I forgive you We were busy living the dream Never noticed the glass ceiling falling on us No shame, no blame Cause the damage is done And I forgive you

Standing in the corner watching you with her Travel sixty miles just to see you kiss her Please, hold her hand like you never have mine Dry her tears when she starts cry And how could I forget you?

I waved the white flag I gave all I had I'd even given up on love itself, hmm, hmm Soaked by my tears I was choked by my fears Just a stubborn man too proud to ask for help You don't know those words you said Were the ones that pulled me from the edge Oh, I used to walk on bridges with one thing on my mind Do I wanna live or do I wanna die? Staring at the waters while trying to decide Between the pain that I've been living with or the pain I'd leave behind Or the demons I've been fighting on, the angels by my side Oh-hey, hey-hey, hey-hey The scars on my skin, they don't even begin To show the darkest places that I've been, nah, oh The water is rising behind my eyes And only you can see the thoughts I'm drowning in I wanna thank you for those words you said 'Cause they pulled me right back from the edge Oh, I used to walk on bridges with one thing on my mind Do I wanna live or do I wanna die? Staring at the waters while trying to decide Between the pain that I've been living with or the pain I'd leave behind Or the demons I've been fighting on, the angels by my side Hey-hey, hey-hey, hey-hey Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh Oh, I used to walk on bridges with one thing on my mind But now I walk on bridges to reach the other side
