Absolve Me
Slipped right through my fingers
Absorbing all the light
Part of you still lingers
And tortures me at night
I wish I could take some of it back
All that's left for me to do is ask
Absolve me, maybe
I'm only human
Dispel my fears
Create some new ones
You look right through me
As if you never knew
That I could break, stumble or fall
Haunted by my guilt
Nowhere left to hide
In the prison that we built
And locked ourselves inside
So easy for you to vilify
All that's left for me to do is try
Absolve me, maybe
I'm only human
Dispel my fears
Create some new ones
You look right through me
As if you never knew
That I could break, stumble or fall
Do I really want forgiveness
A temporary modulation
Do I truly feel remorse
Or is that just another stipulation
Punish me for speaking truth
Possess me, open up old wounds
Quiet now, you wait for me to bend
But the impulse rushes back again
I'm sorry I'll never pretend
Absolve me but don't ever hold me back
Absolve me, maybe
I'm only human
Dispel my fears
Create some new ones
Absorbing all the light
Part of you still lingers
And tortures me at night
I wish I could take some of it back
All that's left for me to do is ask
Absolve me, maybe
I'm only human
Dispel my fears
Create some new ones
You look right through me
As if you never knew
That I could break, stumble or fall
Haunted by my guilt
Nowhere left to hide
In the prison that we built
And locked ourselves inside
So easy for you to vilify
All that's left for me to do is try
Absolve me, maybe
I'm only human
Dispel my fears
Create some new ones
You look right through me
As if you never knew
That I could break, stumble or fall
Do I really want forgiveness
A temporary modulation
Do I truly feel remorse
Or is that just another stipulation
Punish me for speaking truth
Possess me, open up old wounds
Quiet now, you wait for me to bend
But the impulse rushes back again
I'm sorry I'll never pretend
Absolve me but don't ever hold me back
Absolve me, maybe
I'm only human
Dispel my fears
Create some new ones
