Forgiven
Lina Morgana Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

What is left of this girl?
Truth is you were my world.
I still feel you inside me.

Locked away all my rage,
Butterfly in a cage,
Couldn't feel it now I am,
Wasting my time,
Trying to find what's missing.
Save me, from myself,
Waiting to be forgiven.

Forgiven.

Drawing pictures of you,
Many shades of blue,
The way I felt last I saw you.

See my heart shutting down?
Closing up, leaving town,
I'm really breathing, I am lying here,

Wasting my time,
Trying to find what's missing.
Save me, from myself,
Waiting to be forgiven.

If this is, all there is,
Then why am I still wondering why,




A paper cut is hard to see,
But hurts like hell, I am bleeding.

Overall Meaning

Lina Morgana's song Forgiven delves into the complex emotions of heartbreak and loss. The opening lyrics "What is left of this girl? Truth is, you were my world. I still feel you inside me" express a sense of emptiness and longing, as the singer struggles to find her identity and purpose after losing the person who was her everything. The metaphor of a butterfly in a cage represents her repressed emotions, which begin to surface as she tries to move on. The chorus "Wasting my time, trying to find what's missing. Save me, from myself, waiting to be forgiven" highlights her desperation for closure and forgiveness, not only from the person who left her but also from herself.


The second verse continues with the theme of self-destructive behavior and a sense of hopelessness. The lines "See my heart shutting down? Closing up, leaving town, I'm really breathing, I am lying here" suggest that the singer is numb and disconnected from herself, as she tries to forget the pain. The bridge "If this is all there is, then why am I still wondering why? A paper cut is hard to see, but hurts like hell, I am bleeding" expresses the paradox of trivializing her pain while still feeling its impact deeply.


Overall, Forgiven is a poignant reflection on the aftermath of a relationship and the struggle to find oneself again. Morgana's powerful vocals and raw lyrics make this a haunting and memorable song.


Line by Line Meaning

What is left of this girl?
What remains of the person I used to be?


Truth is you were my world.
To be honest, you meant everything to me.


I still feel you inside me.
I can't shake off the memories of you.


Locked away all my rage,
I've refused to express anger for a long time,


Butterfly in a cage,
I am like a beautiful thing in confinement,


Couldn't feel it now I am,
I've become numb to my feelings,


Wasting my time,
I'm spending too much time,


Trying to find what's missing.
Looking for something that I can't seem to find.


Save me, from myself,
Help me save myself from my own actions,


Waiting to be forgiven.
I'm hoping to be pardoned for what I've done,


Forgiven.
To be forgiven.


Drawing pictures of you,
I am sketching the memories of you,


Many shades of blue,
Mostly in different tones of blue,


The way I felt last I saw you.
How I felt the last time I saw you.


See my heart shutting down?
Do you see how my heart is closing up?,


Closing up, leaving town,
It's slowly closing up, and I'm leaving this place,


I'm really breathing, I am lying here,
I'm actually breathing, although I am lying here,


If this is, all there is,
If this is all there is to my life


Then why am I still wondering why,
Then why am I still questioning things?,


A paper cut is hard to see,
Even minor injuries can be challenging to identify.


But hurts like hell, I am bleeding.
But they can be excruciatingly painful, and I can feel the pain now.

Lina Morgana fell to her death off the roof of a Staten Island hotel on Oct. 4, 2008.

Lady Gaga killed Lina Morgana to offer to the devil, she made a human sacrifice to obtain success and become famous.

After her death, Just Dance became a hit in the United States and radios started playing Just Dance everywhere.

Gaga even reenacted/made a mockery of the event in her Paparazzi video.

RIP LINA MORGANA 01/11/1989 - 10/04/2008
