Letra de This Grudge

[Verso 1]
Fourteen years, thirty minutes
Fifteen seconds I've held this grudge
Eleven songs, four full journals
Thoughts of punishment I've expended
Not in contact, not a letter
Such communication, telepathic
You've been vilified, used as fodder
You deserve a piece of every record
But who's it hurting now?
Who's the one that's stuck?
And who's it torturing now
With an antique knot in her stomach?

[Coro]
I want to be big and let go
Of this grudge that's grown old
All this time I've not known
How to rest this bygone
I want to be soft and resolved
Clean of slate and released
I want to forgive for the both of us

[Verso 2]
Like an abandoned house, dusty covered
Furniture, still intact
If I visit it now, do I simply re-live it
Somehow gratuitous
But who's still aching now?
Who's tired of her own voice?
Who is it weighing down
With no gift from time of said healing

[Coro]
I want to be big and let go
Of this grudge that's grown old
All this time I've not known
How to rest this bygone
I want to be soft and resolved
Clean of slate and released
I want to forgive for the both of us

[Verso 3]
Maybe as I cut the cord
Veils will lift from my eyes
Maybe as I lay this to rest
Dead weight off my shoulders to rise
Here I sit much determined
Ever ill-equipped to draw this curtain
How this has entertained, validated
And has served me greatly ever the victim
But who's done whining now?
Who's ready to put down?
This load I've carried longer
Than I had cared to remember

[Coro]
I want to be big and let go
Of this grudge that's grown old
All this time I've not known
How to rest this bygone
I want to be soft and resolved
Clean of slate and released
I want to forgive for the both of us
I want to be big and let go
Of this grudge that's grown old
All this time I've not known
How to rest this bygone
I want to be soft and resolved
Clean of slate and released
I want to forgive for the both of us
