You told me there was much you could teach me
But if one of us had a lesson to learn
It was you
I was shackled by regrets
Guilt of which I could not rid myself
Deeds for which nobody but I could forgive myself
So you pledged to help me
To free me
Give me the means to start afresh
Live the life I would not allow myself
But it was you that needed saving
From the web of lies and deceit
That you had spun so tightly around yourself
Even you could not escape
Nor did you even realise you were trapped
Until it was too late
You taught me that there will be guilt
We pick up along the way
But need not carry to the end
Whilst you also learned
That there are acts
For which there is no forgiveness
Webs from which there is no escape
