the world tells us that life's too short to hold a grudge
but that was written by the people
who expect to infect the pieces of another person's memory
just because you said you didn't mean to be selfish
dont' mean you're not selfish let me give it to you straight
it'll never be as a simple as your story, reputation
or the days passing on

ain't it the same as it always was?
he can just get out there and say "i've changed"
politiking and pretending that nothing happened,
well it didn't to them
but if they can forget than i'll never forgive

some things don't get to be forgave
some forgiveness is a lie.

we are raised to believe that words have no meaning
so it makes sense we use them to say when we're wrong
and yeah i get mad, it's all i got to get by
cause history it ain't two sides
if they can read from a card why can't i read from a card,
it's my empty word against yours
and yeah i get mad, it's all i got to get along
cause his story is usually wrong

ain't it the same as it always was?
he can just get out there and say "i've changed"
politiking and pretending that nothing happened,
well it didn't to him
but if he can forget than i'll never forgive

some things thigns don't get to be forgave
some forgiveness is a lie

yeah life changed us
and there's nothing we can do about it
but own our past
and not let it own us
