Better Off Forgiven - Matthew Mayfield

Weightless in the silence,

the only thing you hear.

It came between the riddles and the question marks

that all appear.

You don’t want to stay here with all the stop and go,

Moving up, moving on, move away along the road.

The time is here,

stop with all the circles and the grinding gears,

Leave it all behind and see your slate is clear

Look past the fear, oh my dear,

You’re better off forgiven anyway.

Fight the ghosts,

Remnants inside you pulling tight on all your ropes.

Faults and fears

coming in between you and the heights you used to know.

You don’t want to stay here with all the stop and go,

Moving up, moving on, move away along the road.

The time is here,

Stop with all the circles and the grinding gears,

Leave it all behind and see your slate is clear

Look past the fear, oh my dear,

You’re better off forgiven anyway.

Override belief in all the fables and the lies that bind,

Leave 'em on the table.

There’s a place to hide inside the light you near,

You’re better off forgiven anyway

Better off forgiven anyway

Better off forgiven anyway

Oh, oh

Time is here,

Stop with all the circles and the grinding gears,

Leave it all behind and see your slate is clear,

Look past the fear, oh my dear,

We’re better off forgiven anyway.

Override belief in all the fables and the lies that bind

Leave 'em on the table

There’s a place to hide inside the light you near,

You’re better off forgiven anyway

better off forgiven anyway

better off forgiven anyway

Oh, oh
