Amends

You gave an inch, I took a mile
You lit a match, I set our fire
You know they say to make amends
Face to face

And though I know it's not my place
To tell you how to live your life
But to forget somebody's sins
Is divine, is divine

There is nothing you could say
To cause more hurt, or cause me shame
Than all the things that I have thought
About myself

It's been so long and time has passed
We are both changed yet nothing has
When will you let me off the hook
And let me pass?

When the chains on the fence break
And free me the same
They can't wait to deliver bad news

It's what you do to make it right
Matter of fact, it's called revenge
Cut off your nose to spite your face
It's pretty cool shutting me out
It's what you do to make it right
Matter of fact, it's called revenge
Cut off your nose to spite your face
It's pretty cool shutting me out

I use no knives, I didn't lie
I didn't mess around, or even tried
When they were lined up around the block
I sat and watched

So it's a shame that we don't talk
I miss your face and life is short
Get off your cross cause long goodbyes
Come every time, come every time

It's time to change your mind
It's time to change your mind
Don't you plead to crawl
It's time to change your mind
Cause I don't know, don't know you
Cause I don't know, don't know you
Cause I don't know, don't know you
Cause I don't know, don't know you
Cause I don't know, don't know you
Cause I don't know, don't know you

Compensaciones

tu diste una pulgada, yo tome una milla
prendiste un fosforo, encendí nuestro fuego
sabes dicen que para hacer compensaciones
es cara a cara

y aunque se que no es mi lugar
de decirte como vivir tu vida
pero si olvidar los pecados de alguien mas
es divino, divino

no hay nada que podrias decir
para hacer mas daño, o causarme vergüenza
mas que todas las cosas que he pensado
de mi misma

ha pasado tanto tiempo
los dos cambiamos
cuando me dejaras libre
y me dejaras pasar?

cuando las cadenas en la reja se rompen
y me liberan igual
no pueden esperar a entregar malas noticias

es lo que haces para hacerlo bien
de hecho, se llama revancha
corta tu nariz para odiar tu cara
es bueno callarme
es lo que haces bien
de hecho, se llama revancha
corta tu nariz para odiar tu cara
es muy bueno callarme verdad

no uso cuchillos, no menti
no me entrometi, ni siquiera lo intente
cuando ellos estaban en línea alrededor de la cuadra
me sente y mire

y que pena que no caminamos
extraño tu cara y la vida es tan corta
salte de tu cruz porque las despedidas largas
vienen siempre, siempre

es tiempo de que cambies de parecer
es tiempo de que cambies de parecer
no ruegues arrastrarte
es tiempo de cambiar de parecer
porque no, no te conozco
porque no, no te conozco
porque no, no te conozco
porque no, no te conozco
porque no, no te conozco
porque no, no te conozco
