You seem so dignified
You share your war stories as if you lived them
Out on the battlefront
I don't recall ever seein' you around
Is it real, is it a sickness?
'Cause it's takin' control
And it's making a fool out of you
A cold mistress
Fate has a way of correcting mistakes
Look at the bright side, I spared you
And that's a goddamn miracle
I thought of all the ways to hurt you
Yeah, forgiveness is an art
How could you bite the hand that feeds you
When you come crawling back to me?
Look at the bright side, I spared you
'Cause you're so goddamn pitiful
Woah, woah, woah
Woah, woah, woah
Woah, woah, woah
If all the world's a stage
Seems like they've sent in the clowns a little too late
They're gonna find you out
Hidin' in shadows, hidin' your doubt
Is it real, is it just business?
Hope you choke on the smoke
As your world goes up in flames
Look at the bright side, I spared you
And that's a goddamn miracle
I thought of all the ways to hurt you
Yeah, forgiveness is an art
How could you bite the hand that feeds you
When you come crawling back to me?
Look at the bright side, I spared you
'Cause you're so goddamn pitiful
♪
Woah, woah, woah
Forgiveness is an art
Woah, woah, woah
Woah, woah, woah
Forgiveness is an art
Regardless of another shakedown
You'll never cause another breakdown
Woah, woah, woah
Forgiveness is an art
I hope you know I hate the way how
You thought I'd found myself a way out
