Lyrics

They never said sorry

Not one time it's true

Wouldn't apologize

For the things they often do

Never tried to fight back

Just stepped past tactfully

To make my assessment

On the inhumanity

I could see them out there

Watching from afar

Sitting on a curbside

At the local dive bar

I am nothing special

A simple lonely soul

But it doesn't matter

With loss of self-control

How have you not seen it

I'm trying everyday

Can't you get it in your head

We don't work the same way

Refrain from coming further

You've used your last lifeline

Working on forgiveness

Gets harder every time

Seems to me it's common

To forget the rules of life

I've got the solution

That somebody won't like

Give yourself a value

And think on what to do

Cause the wrong decisions

Come crawling back to you

How have you not noticed

It's visible you know

She's waiting for a taxi

With nowhere to go

Open your eyes brother

You're not in a disguise

Working on forgiveness

Gets harder every time

I wish there was a book

For them to take a look

And realize that they

Are not spellbound

This ain't a battle cry

Simply let passerbys

Get to their locations

Safe and sound

Take a look around you

At the sun and at the clouds

We all see the same things

People places we surround

Sit me down for questions

I would never lie

Working on forgiveness

Gets harder every time

Working on forgiveness

Gets harder every time
