Forgivable Sin
Forgivable Sin: A Heart's Struggle with Regret and Redemption
Lyrics
When she told me she loved me
Receiving affirmation of love from her
I told her a lie
Responding with a falsehood
When she lay down beside me
Being physically close to her
It wasn't my first time
Having previous intimate experiences
I was blue she was there
Feeling down while she is present
She came around
Her frequent visits
Ran her hands through my hair
Engaging in physical intimacy
And we hit the ground
Beginning a relationship
Why couldn't I see the man
Failure to perceive his true self
That she saw in me
Her positive perception of him
With this lie in my hands
Holding onto deceit
Its all i will be
Defined by the lie
And i'll never see her again
Acceptance of losing her forever
Never will i win
Inability to triumph in love
Its hard to grow old
Challenges of aging without moral perfection
Without sin
Recognizing the inevitability of sin
And i'll never see her again
No chance for reconciliation
She'll never let me in
Her reluctance to forgive
Its hard to grow old without sin
Aging with imperfections and regrets
Well I need you babe
Expressing dependency on her
But you need him
Acknowledging her attachment to someone else
If he's the one you hold dear
Acceptance of her love for another
A forgivable sin
Labeling it as a forgivable sin
She stayed up all night waiting
Her anticipation while he's away
While I was looking for what I had at home
Searching for something outside of the relationship
Will I ever give up hating
Struggling with self-hatred for past mistakes
Myself for what i've done wrong.
Reflecting on wrongdoings
And i'll never see her again
Acceptance of permanent separation
Never will I win
Admitting defeat in love
Its hard to grow old
Challenges of aging without moral perfection
Without sin
Embracing the inevitability of sin
And I'll never see her again
No chance for reconciliation
She'll never let me in
Her reluctance to forgive
Its hard to grow old without sin
Aging with imperfections and regrets
The times we were together she knew
Acknowledging the temporary nature of their love
My love wouldn't last forever and she knew
Her awareness of the impermanence of his love
But I wana know
Desire for understanding
I wanna know
Repeating the need for knowledge
But i wana know
Reiterating the desire for understanding
I wanna know
Expressing the need for clarity
Will I ever see her again
Questioning the possibility of reunion
Or never will I win
Acceptance of losing her forever
Its hard to grow old
Inability to triumph in love
Without sin
Challenges of aging without moral perfection
Will I'll ever see her again
No chance for reconciliation
She'll never let me in
Her reluctance to forgive
Its hard to grow old without sin
Aging with imperfections and regrets
Well I need you babe
Expressing dependency on her
You need him
Acknowledging her attachment to someone else
If he's the one you hold dear
Acceptance of her love for another
A forgivable sin
Labeling it as a forgivable sin
