Please forgive me for what never was.
For what never became the truth.
Please forgive me for all the pain.
For all that I have done to f** this up.
For I can still see those brown eyes on an innocent child.
Even though the eyes may appear the same. They are long gone, far away.
Yesterday upon the stairs, I met a man who wasn't there.
He wasn't there again today. I wish, I wish he'd go away.
Please forgive me for the choices that I've made.
I never thought they could affect us this way.
I can still feel that child inside, trying to break free.
But there is no way out, you can never leave.
Yesterday upon the stairs, I met a man who wasn't there.
He wasn't there again today. I wish, I wish he'd go away.
It is just like a shadow from a distant past, captured in time where everything was divine.
I would give everything to give you your life back.
But 20 years have past, 20 years of pain
Last night I saw upon the stairs, a little man who wasn't there.
He wasn't there again today.
Oh how I wish he would have stayed.
