No Excuses

You forget that I remember
Eight years gone but not forgotten
Where I'll roam I'll absolve on my own

Your imitation has appeal
Mother accepted your transaction

No excuses now
Because I don't forgive easily
Wounds remain under the surface

I've accepted your fate
Your conscious but won't change
The devil himself living inside the glass

I swore to never be like you
Because my children won't fear me

No excuses now
Because everyone knows
Wounds remain under the surface

But I still love you so
