"Presumption Of Guilt" Lyrics

Who would have thought
That in an instant
My future would be gone

And in its place
Just painful memories
And a million damning gazes

What could I have done?
What should I have said?

I have lived my life Hounded like prey
Wondering why Why I should pay
I gave my love My only soul
Just look inside At my naked pity

Who would have thought
That in an instant
My loved one, would be gone

And in her place
A million stares
A distorting eye on someone shoulder

What could I have done?
What should I have said?

It's not forgive
It's not forget
It's simply fairness
That's all I ask

Some words were spoken

Many words were written
yet only few
were left unbroken

I saved a life
Some tears were shed
yet only few
Seemed to take notice

You pushed me out
So you could bring me
Back with my hands in your chains

What could I have done?
What should I have said?

Where will we find
Where the truth lies
Now that the words
Have all been broken

Can we replace
My mother's tears
Now that the souls
Have all been tainted

It's not forgive
It's not forget
It's simply fairness
That's all I ask
