Thought I knew
How I ended up here
Thought I knew
How to make the picture clear
The shame I felt to realize
That I was wrong
So difficult to see
That I was guilty all along

Thought it was you
Who led me down this road

To comprehend
Doesn't make me free
To understand
This wall was built
And strengthened
By my own hand

The pain and misery
Was an illusion
In my own mind

It's not for you to help me
Leave the past behind

Forgiveness isn't
Owed to anyone
Frustration forced
My mind to run
And left me hoping
I could force a second chance
The distant memories
Shouldn't hold me back
From moving on
And taking back control

The sign I waited for is mine
No words can make it right
