Forgive Me
The Saint And The Dead Lyrics

I know I've broke your heart 1,000 times each way
I acknowledge the pain and heartbreak I've caused you through my actions and behavior, even if they were repetitive and varied in ways.

And I know it makes you feel like you and I was a mistake
I recognize that my actions have caused regret and disappointment in our relationship, making you question our connection and whether it was a mistake.

You're so tired of empty promises and sorry's
I understand that my apologies and promises have come across as insincere and meaningless, which has led to your exhaustion and frustration.

Just know I tried even though we parted ways
I want you to understand that I made an effort to make things work between us, even though it ultimately led to our separation.

So I pray for forgiveness cause I'm learning to forgive me
I ask for your forgiveness as I am also learning to forgive myself for my mistakes.

And God as my witness I'm tryna find my inner peace
I am currently seeking inner peace and guidance from a higher being to help me through this process of seeking forgiveness and self-forgiveness.

Cause nobody's perfect
I realize that perfection is unattainable for anyone, including myself, and that we all make mistakes.

Reminding myself every day
I make a conscious effort to remind myself every day that perfection is impossible.

But who wants perfect anyways
I question the desirability of perfection and whether it's worth pursuing at all.

I wanted love so bad I hid my pain under lies
I confess that I craved love so much that I concealed my own pain and struggles with lies and deceit.

The worst kind of death is when you lose someone to pride
I recognize that losing someone due to pride is a painful experience that can be likened to a figurative death.

Don't let my flaws be the reason that you change
I urge you not to let my shortcomings and mistakes be the catalyst for changing who you are as a person.

Just guard your heart it won't lead you astray
I encourage you to protect your heart and not let it wander off course because of my actions.

And God as my witness I'll never let my history repeat
I swear to God that I will not repeat my mistakes and behaviors from my past.

I'm learning to accept my mistakes
I am currently in the process of coming to terms with my errors and taking responsibility for them.

Even though we weren't forever
Although our relationship did not last, I am still grateful for the time we spent together.

What we had ill always remember
I will always cherish the memories and moments we shared together.

I hope one day you find it within you to see the good in me
I hope that one day you can recognize and appreciate the positive aspects of my character and personality.

Im so thankful for forgiveness cause I finally forgave me
I am grateful for the forgiveness I've received, and I have also forgiven myself for my mistakes.

And God as my witness I see you every night in my dreams
I swear to God that I still think of you and have dreams about you every night.

I'm recognizing that's okay
I am acknowledging that it's okay to make mistakes and be imperfect, and I am learning to accept this fact.

But you're still perfect in your own way
While nobody is truly perfect, I still see you as perfect in your unique and individual way.
