the unforgiven ii

lay beside me, tell me what they’ve done
speak the words i want to hear, to make my demons run
the door is locked now, but it’s open if you’re true
if you can understand the me, than i can understand the you.

lay beside me, under wicked sky
through black of day, dark of night, we share this pair of lives
the door cracks open, but there’s no sun shining through
black heart scarring darker still, but there’s no sun shining through
no, there’s no sun shining through
no, there’s no sun shining

what i’ve felt, what i’ve known
turn the pages, turn the stone
behind the door, should i open it for you?

what i’ve felt, what i’ve known
sick and tired, i stand alone
could you be there?, ’cause i’m the one who waits for you
or are you unforgiven too?

come lay beside me, this won’t hurt i swear
she loves me not, she loves me still, but she’ll never love again
she lay beside me, but she’ll be there when i’m gone
black heart scarring darker still, yes she’ll be there when i’m gone
yes, she’ll be there when i’m gone
dead sure she’ll be there!

what i’ve felt, what i’ve known
turn the pages, turn the stone
behind the door, should i open it for you?

what i’ve felt, what i’ve known
sick and tired, i stand alone
could you be there?, ’cause i’m the one who waits for you
or are you unforgiven too?

(solo)

lay beside me, tell me what i’ve done
the door is closed, so are your eyes
but now i see the sun, now i see the sun
yes now i see it!

what i’ve felt, what i’ve known
turn the pages, turn the stone
behind the door, should i open it for you?

what i’ve felt, what i’ve known
so sick and tired, i stand alone
could you be there?, ’cause i’m the one who waits,
the one who waits for you

oh what i’ve felt, what i’ve known
turn the pages, turn the stone
behind the door, should i open it for you?
(so i dub thee unforgiven)

oh, what i’ve felt
oh, what i’ve known!

i take this key (never free)
and i bury it (never me) in you
because you’re unforgiven too

never free
never me
’cause you’re unforgiven too!
