Lyrics

 * Yes, I lied
 * Thought I could protect you from the truth
 * Deliver you from evil
 * Spare your innocence and youth
 * That I could simply will it
 * Was the real untruth


 * I was wrong
 * I wore a mask to cover my deceit
 * But underneath it all I couldn't keep away my doubt
 * Now I'm left without a mask
 * And one question left to ask


 * I'm sorry, please help me, forgive me
 * Don't hate me, don't leave me, forgive me
 * Forgive me, my debt as only you could
 * Forgive me the hate
 * Replace evil with good
 * Forgive me and find out that you will be able to
 * forgive yourself too


 * My dear Solan, I never told you that you were my son
 * I didn't know the days we had left were so few
 * If I only knew I'd have been with you
 * I'm so sorry
 * I couldn't be the mother you deserved
 * And I regret that I missed your first step and your first word
 * That I never heard - now it seems absurd


 * Can you forgive me
 * Open up your heart and let me in
 * No matter if the Fates against us turn
 * There's one thing through all of this I've learned
 * That what I need from you is to...


 * Forgive me, I'm sorry, believe me
 * Stop hating, stop hurting, forgive me
 * Forgive those who harm you
 * Do good for those who hate
 * Forgive, if not forget
 * I know it's not too late
 * Forgive me and you'll discover too
 * That the love of your love is you
