You live your life like a tornado
Destruction follows everywhere you go
And you have no plans to stop or slow oh
I will not let this bitter root grow in me
I will not let you leave that legacy
But it gets so hard when pain is all I see oh
Every time I find healing you're making a new mess
And I am learning the real meaning of forgiveness
And I tried to remove myself from your path
But I keep waking up in the aftermath
So I pick up again and say I won't look back oh
And I will not let you leave that legacy
But this constant fight is breaking me oh
Every time I find healing you're making a new mess
And I am learning the real meaning of forgiveness
And it hurts when you hit at the hearts of the ones I love
When everything you touch is rumble and dust
And it gets so hard to know how to trust
But I will not let that bitter root grow
I will not let it no no
But it gets so hard oh
Every time I find healing you're making a new mess
And I am learning the real meaning of forgiveness
And I could move and never send you a forwarding address
Or I could learn the real meaning of forgiveness
