Bury The Dead

(album: Who We Are: The Head And The Heart - 2020)

Break the mirror
(But) I'm still not alone
I keep hearing
Where it all went wrong
The memories stay
I try to escape
Your voice in my brain
I hear you say
"Learn your lesson
You're just too naive
Count your blessings
Stay down at my feet"
The memories stay
I try to escape
There's only so much that I can take

What if I can't forget the hurt?
What if I can't erase your words?
How can I forgive if I can't forget?
Didn't you know that this means war?
Now that we're chained, I can't close the door
How can I forgive if I can't forget?

You're the cancer
Burning in my blood
Time to answer
For the things you've done
Get out of my head
Enough has been said
I've got to move on
And bury the dead

What if I can't forget the hurt?
What if I can't erase your words?
How can I forgive if I can't forget?
Didn't you know that this means war?
Now that we're chained, I can't close the door
How can I forgive if I can't forget?
If I can't forget?

Can I move on?
Can I bury the dead?
(If I can't forget?)
Can I move on
If I bury the dead?
Can I move on?
Can I bury the dead?
(If I can't forget?)
Can I move on
If I bury the dead?
Can I move on?
Can I bury the dead?
(If I can't forget?)
Can I move on
If I bury the dead?

I thought I was in control
Thought I knew how to let go
But I don't want to
Do I want to?
I thought you were the disease
But the burden's still on me
To forgive, to forgive
To bury the dead

What if I can't forget the hurt?
What if I can't erase your words?
How can I forgive if I can't forget?
Didn't you know that this means war?
Now that we're chained, I can't close the door
How can I forgive if I can't forget?

What if I can't forget the hurt?
What if I can't erase your words?
How can I forgive if I can't forget?
Didn't you know that this means war?
Now that we're chained, I can't close the door
How can I forgive if I can't forget?

Can I move on?
Can I bury the dead?
Can I move on
If I bury the dead?
