Lisa Marie Presley - Forgiving lyrics

There was once a light inside of me
But lately I see it’s dimmed out slowly

And I fight, I kick i yell, I scream
That what is happening
Well, it can’t be really and as I go along
I’m finding the ground below
You can get ripped out from under your feet
The light around you turned out blinding
The darkness is a more honest place to be

And I want to find in me
That I can still believe and be forgiving
Yes, I want to be like you
Can you teach me how to be forgiving?

There was once a friend inside of me
But lately I see there is an enemy

I fight, I kick i yell, I scream
What is happening but no one hears me
And I go along finding

The friends I thought I had
They weren’t good friends at all
No, I don’t really need reminding
I’m much too jaded and much to cynical

Yes, I want to find in me
That I can still believe and be forgiving
And I want to be like you
Can you teach me how to be forgiving?
