Shards

I tried moving with grace
 At the pinnacle of our failure
 But you were only saving face
 And after all of our mistakes
 And all the changes I'm still the same
 I thank God for all my strenght
 And now I'm much better off today
 Though it cost me so much pain
 Now you show up and you say
 Could you not forgive?
 And can you not forget?
 Bitterness is no remedy in sorting
 Through this pile of glass
 You ask me to forgive
 And say you'll be my friend
 Your ignorance is the malady
 In sorting through these
 Shards of broken glass
 It's all painfully cliché
 How you wanted to play the savior
 Without owning any blame
 You might've dodget the ricochet
 But there are dues that you left unpaid
 And it'll all come back one day
 And I knew much better than to wait
 'Cause we lost a losing game
 And it calls for two to play
 Could you not forgive?
 And can you not forget?
 Bitterness is no remedy in sorting
 Through this pile of glass
 You ask me to forgive
 And say you'll be my friend
 Your ignorance is the malady
 In sorting through these shards
 A borrowed olive branch is no apology
 And you can take back
 All of you new-found chinese philosophy
 But can you answer this
 Who do you think you were?
 And who do you think you are?
 I put all your lies to rest
 In the graveyard of my heart
 How can you ask me
 Could you not forgive?
 And can you not forget?
 Bitterness is no remedy in sorting
 Through this pile of glass
 You ask me to forgive
 'Cause you want to be my friend
 But your ignorance is the malady
 In sorting through these
 Shards of broken glass
 I'll never forget
 What you'll never regret
 I'll never forget
 What you'll never regret
 I'll never forget
 What you'll never regret
