MAI - Forgiveness (corrected)

Forgiveness continues the story of a life collapsing in silence.
A song about loss, guilt, and the unbearable space between forgiving and forgetting.

Rooms once shared now feel like ruins.
Voices fade, memories cut deep, and the question keeps echoing through the emptiness:

Will I ever learn to forgive?

Lyrics:

I watch her move through quiet rooms
Like a stranger I once called my life
A smile, a glance - it pulls me close
Then leaves me idle in the silence

I lost my home, my blood, my name
Children’s voices fading from my hands
I built a world she burned to the ground
And now I wait inside the remains

Will I ever learn to forgive?
She keeps the silence I can’t outlive
I am the fracture in my mind

Will I ever learn to forget?

Her scent still lingers in our home
It seems like I'm the stranger now
The face I loved feels like a lie
I reach for her, it drives me insane
This home
With her… isn't one...

I lost my wealth, my faith, my sleep
Every road she closed behind my feet
I built a world she broke in two
And still I’m trapped inside the view

Will I ever learn to forgive?
She keeps the silence I can’t outlive
I am the fracture in my mind

Will I ever learn to forget?

This is not healing, this is prison
No gods, no peace, no absolution
Time drags its talons through my veins
I am bound, I am lost, I am chains

Will I ever learn to forget?
Every loss, every cut, every child, every home
Still I whisper the question alone

Will I ever learn to forgive?

She lives her life, I live in silence
Between forgiveness and the abyss
And as my voice cracks through the still -
Will I ever learn - how to forgive…
