Lyrics

I've grown up in a broken city
I've seen chain, but I don't want pity
Maybe I'm too young
To be demanding
I have tried, and I have failed
To bear the cross, piercing nails
Forgive me, please
Oh, please, be understanding
'Cause I will not forget the love you gave
But be that as it may
Every night I pray
For brighter stars, for golden days
And to be taken far away
Be that as it may
I know it's wrong for me to stay
I cannot bear these shades of grey
So now I'm on my way
Be that as it may
Ooh
I will not forget the love you gave
