"Exoneration" lyrics

"Exoneration"

The van was driven off the side of the road
It's in so many fucking pieces
Now I know what responsibility means to me
I fell asleep but there's a reason we're not dead yet

Life is more appealing to me
I can front the pain that's stricken me
And all that this is telling me is I'm weak

I wasn't much to protect
But I guess I was given the chance
To make sure the most of all the time I have left
I spend in respect to the life that I strive to create
Take away pain with sedation
Always searching for distractions
All the thoughts are stuck in my head
And I can never accept exoneration

If this was some sort of sign to change my ways
Of living life in the past, then it's forgotten
God, he thought my life was worth it
Or maybe I was spared because of somebody else in the van

I was never the one to rest my faith
In the force of some source above that caused creation
And karma seemed too far-fetched to believe in
But I'm fucking lucky to be breathing

I wasn't much to protect
But I guess I was given the chance
To make sure the most of all the time I have left
I spend in respect to the life that I strive to create
Take away pain with sedation
Always searching for distractions
All the thoughts are stuck in my head
And I can never accept exoneration

I wasn't much to protect
But I guess I was given the chance
To make sure the most of all the time I have left
I spend in respect to the life that I strive to create
