A Time For Understanding

This is where I stand
our paths have crossed
this time you've crossed the line
our paths have crossed
this time you've crossed the line
where words have failed
i've done all I can
now time will tell
this is where I stand

I could't turn around, I thought I'd never walk away
and even thought it hurts I know its time to change
a clean slate, emptying
out your space, a new thing

Moving on, I know its time for understanding
and for us to make a truce
but, in lacking compassion
its hard for me to forgive you
I always knew you were a coward, Coward
I always knew you were afraid, Afraid

I can feel the coward
the child inside
I can see he's scared
I can feel the coward
the child inside
you're running scared

run away.

I could't turn around, I thought I'd never walk away
and even thought it hurts I know its time to change
a clean slate, emptying
out your space, a new thing

[3x]
This is where I stand
run away
This is where I stay
