What was it then, you thought, that set you back
I wonder when you decided you would attack
Perhaps you thought it was ultimate
And nothing really mattered anymore
But I was there, I never saw black or white
And you were grey, neither friend nor foe, and I
Thought that we would make it through
But you had kept score
Cause on the scales of guilt I will always descend
But I hoped for your sake that this hate would one day end
All I want you to know is this
I won't disappear so you have peace
Now it seems to me
That it was you who needed me desperately
To clean yourself, take it to your own hell
Leave me be
You've gotta leave me be
Cause on the scales of guilt I will always descend
But I hoped for your sake that this hate would one day end
You gotta pardon me, but I am moving on
Don't lecture me, I'll fight my demons on my own
All I want you to know is this
I won't disappear so you have peace
Cause the last thing you want is
For me to get things right
I need acceptance cause I need to rebuild
My setting stone will never be guilt
I've said my sorry and I truly am
But don't expect me to ever repent
I won't repent. Cause on the scales of guilt I will always descend
You gotta pardon me, but I am moving on
Don't lecture me, I'll fight my demons on my own
