Je Te Pardonne

I’ve got a thousand excuses for not doing it, but I’m gonna forgive
I’ve got a thousand excuses for not doing it, but I’m gonna forgive
In my descent into hell, I’ve given, I’ve given
Control everywhere, betrayal, I know humanity
The sun sets on the horizon, no one knows you anymore

I’m losing my balance, I feel drunk
I’m struggling to understand, I’m struggling to keep up
I’m losing my balance, I feel drunk
It’s only when I fall that I feel free

And I think of you when I think of no one
The pain you caused in my soul echoes
A hostage to my sorrow, nothing consoles me
I’ll find peace only if I forgive

Forgive
I’ll hand you the war axe
I forgive you, I forgive you
Which one of us will change the game?
I forgive you, I forgive you
I forgive you, I forgive you

Some SOSs, a few tears, and I learn my lesson
Nothing much, soul’s hurt, I feel the pain
Revenge is on a leash, can spill blood
Resilience told me to let the water flow under the bridges

I wore the uniform, hurt on the mat
I told myself there are worse things to make sense of it
I’m my own enemy, both executioner and victim
Life, what an irony, mom was right

And I think of you when I think of no one
The pain you caused in my soul echoes
A hostage to my sorrow, nothing consoles me
I’ll find peace only if I forgive

Forgive
I’ll hand you the war axe
I forgive you, I forgive you
Which one of us will change the game?
I forgive you, I forgive you
I forgive you, I forgive you

I’ve already won
I’ve got a thousand excuses for not doing it, but I’m gonna forgive
