Forgiven Not Forgotten Lyrics
All alone, staring on,
Watching her life go by
When her days are grey, and her nights are black;
different shades of mundane.
And the one-eyed furry toy that lies upon the bed
has often heard her cry,
And heard her whisper out a name long forgiven,
but not forgotten.
You're forgiven, not forgotten.
You're forgiven, not forgotten.
You're forgiven, not forgotten.
You're not forgotten.
A bleeding heart torn apart, left on an icy grave,
in the room where they once lay face-to-face;
nothing could get in their way.
But now the memories of a man are haunting her days,
and the craving never fades;
she's still dreaming of a man long forgiven,
but not forgotten.
You're forgiven, not forgotten.
You're forgiven, not forgotten.
You're forgiven, not forgotten.
You're not forgotten.
Still alone, staring on,
wishing her life goodbye
as she goes searching for the man long forgiven,
but not forgotten.
You're forgiven, not forgotten.
You're forgiven, not forgotten.
You're forgiven, not forgotten.
You're forgiven, not forgotten.
You're forgiven, not forgotten.
You're forgiven, not forgotten.
You're forgiven, not forgotten.
You're forgiven, not forgotten.
You're not forgotten.
You're not forgotten.
No, you're not forgotten.
The song is about a man who committed suicide.
This song chills me, I can't believe no one has commented on it. The lyrics, I think, are fabulous.
I believe this song is about a sad woman who has lost the love of her life and is wasting away, shes forgiven the man for dying and leaving her alone in the world but she will never forget him
I agree that this is a very beautiful song, her voice is awesome and these lyrics are so sad. I think that you could be right, Gracefire, from the lines "an empty heart, torn apart, left on an icy grave," that her love died, but it could even just be that their love is dead, that he left her. Maybe she's forgiven him for going, but still "the craving never fades."
Fukin tough song. Love it. It has an anger to it, but also a sense of extreme sadness, which is pretty much the message anyway.
This was very hard for me to listen to, stirrs the ol' ticker. Brilliant song, makes me cry sometimes
