Forgive Me
I could see everything- a perfect world for the three of us
But I'm sorry we couldn't have it like it was all planned
It was all a hoax, a faux dream teasing us
And the world was everything we could never command

There was never a real comfort, after you slipped away
And yet here the two of us are, awaiting the moment
We're still here waiting for that perfect day
When you'll come back home to be with us...

But it will never come and I know I can't change the past
I wish I could close my eyes and cease to ever exist
You'll never understand how terribly sorry I am
My dear brother, it is what it is, and I am who I am
But I can still hope that you'll forgive me
Forgive me for my mistakes

Brother, you continue to blame yourself, and I know it isn't right
Why can't you see, this is as much my burden as it is your fight
Please quit holding yourself down and weighing this on your shoulders
You can't always be the Military's perfect little soldier

Because I understand the pain and you can't keep weighing yourself down
You'd keep carrying this agony, even if it made you drown
I'm tired of the way you look, hiding those teary eyes
You're always trying to smile, though I can see through your disguise

I know we can't change the past, my brother
But we can always move on to the future,
And I know you blame yourself, even though I'm to blame too
Would you please quit acting like it's just you

Because that perfect world will never come
And I know I can't change the past
I wish I could close my eyes and cease to exist
Because then maybe, this never would have happened
And you wouldn't blame yourself for the course of tragic actions
But through all of this I can still hope you'll forgive me
Forgive me for my mistakes

We aren't the perfect two in a world like this you see
But we can make it through, if we lean on each others shoulders
You're the reason I keep moving on to be
The perfect little soldier
Just so you'll forgive me,
All I can ask is that you...
Forgive me, if that's possible anymore
Forgive me, I know I keep drowning in remorse
But I need this to keep moving on,
So, I ask one more time, will you forgive me
And keep ushering me along?
Forgive me for everything that went so wrong...
