Slate of Gray

How many battles did we fight together side by side? And how could you break that bond, leave me to abide? Why did you turn away in that moment of truth? Should I forgive the past when all I have is proof? ...you betrayed me! You betrayed me! Every day I'm pressing on, just routine in this play Sorting through the aftermath, the colors fade to gray Sweeping up the shattered trust, mending fences alone Should I let go of the hurt, when your deed is carved in stone? ...I clean this slate! I clean this slate!
