It feels so hard to tell the truth I keep it locked away Up against the wall Up against the night It's not fair It's not right Can't let go of your hand though Can't let go of your hand Forgiveness, I need this I wish I was strong enough to hold it Forgiveness, I confess Can't bring myself to turn to the light Burning the candle at either end It's all that I can do If I stop moving Then questions loom Drinks and pills To clear the room Don't let go of my hand, though Don't let go of my hand, though Forgiveness, I need this I wish I was strong enough to hold it Forgiveness, I confess Can't bring myself to turn to the light Is it for me or for you or for them? I can't tell Forgiveness, I need it I wish I was strong enough to hold it Forgiveness, give me witness I wish that I could turn to the light Turn to the light Turn to the light Turn to the light
