Can you forgive
And forget your self-pride?
Let it all go
And recover your stride

I'll take the pain, so blame it on me
Give me the weight for everything
No matter how large, or how small
I will bear it all
Find forgiveness in your heart
So you can continue on

Give a name to the rose - it's all the same
It'll still smell as sweet
Give a name to the rose - it's all the same
It won't change what you meant to me (Ah)

If you live - Live your life with good intent
It returns somewhere along the way (Ah)
But - would you give - Give it a second thought
When saying it reveals the lie

There's only 10 you're to blame for
But no one will share the fault
You take the heat, but no more
So now's the time, you gotta hold your own
And stand up tall

It's the number one thing you can never forget
Don't let them define you
There is fight in you yet

I'll take the pain, so blame it on me
Give me the weight for everything
No matter how large, or how small
You and I can bear it all
Find forgiveness in your heart
And you will continue on
