  • I forgive you, I forgive me
    Now when do I start to feel again
    I forgive you, I forgive me
    Now when do I start to feel again

    'Cause the lights are on
    But I'm never home
    But I'll be back with a brand new attitude
    'Cause I forgive you

    I forgive you
    We were just a couple of kids
    Trying to figure out how to live
    Doing it our way
    No shame, no blame
    'Cause the damage is done
    And I forgive you
    I forgive you
    We were busy living the dream
    Never noticed the glass ceiling falling on us
    No shame, no blame
    'Cause the damage is done
    And I forgive you

    I forgive you, I forgive me
    Now do I start to feel again
    If I hate you, what does that do
    So I breathe in and I count to 10

    'Cause the lights are on
    And I'm coming home
    Yes I am back
    With a new heart in my hand
    'Cause I forgive you

    I forgive you
    We were just a couple of kids
    Trying to figure out how to live
    Doing it our way
    No shame, no blame
    'Cause the damage is done
    And I forgive you
    I forgive you
    We were busy living the dream
    Never noticed the glass ceiling falling on us
    No shame, no blame
    'Cause the damage is done
    And I forgive you

    I forgive you
    For every time that I cried
    Over some stupid thing you did to hurt me
    That's alright, yeah I forgive you

    I forgive you
    We were just a couple of kids
    Trying to figure out how to live
    Doing it our way
    No shame, no blame
    'Cause the damage is done
    And I forgive you

    I forgive you
    We were just a couple of kids
    Trying to figure out how to live
    Doing it our way
    No shame, no blame
    'Cause the damage is done
    And I forgive you
    I forgive you
    We were busy living the dream
    Never noticed the glass ceiling falling on us
    No shame, no blame
    'Cause the damage is done
    And I forgive you Writer/s: ANDRE LINDAL, LAUREN CHRISTY, RODNEY JERKINS
