Cold Water

Cups

I saw you first through cracks of fear,
your eyes sharp as knives,
words cutting paths in my small chest,
paths in my small chest,
paths in my small chest.

You stood above me, Queen of Swords,
beauty hiding shadow,
shadow beneath beauty,
shadow beneath beauty.
The stairs remember my trembling steps,
the stairs remember, the stairs remember.

Chorus:
I forgive, but I will never forget,
I forgive, I forgive,
but I will never forget.
The scars you bore me shape who I am,
each time you choose yourself over me still.
I forgive, I forgive,
but I will never forget.

I remember the weight, the weight of your presence,
how the house breathed with your storms,
how my small hands held my own heart,
my own heart, my own heart,
while yours roared and demanded.

Even now I see the ways you’ve changed,
reparenting what you hold dear,
but the child in me still watches,
still watches, still watches,
measuring warmth, measuring light,
wondering if it is true,
or borrowed from your self-made sun.

Chorus:
I forgive, but I will never forget,
I forgive, I forgive,
but I will never forget.
The scars you bore me shape who I am,
each time you choose yourself over me still.
I forgive, I forgive,
but I will never forget.

Queen of Swords, your shadow walks behind your beauty,
your shadow walks, your shadow walks,
your sharp words echo in halls I fled,
echo in halls I fled, echo in halls I fled.

Yet I stand taller in the ruins you left,
my voice a hymn for the child who watched,
who learned to bend but not break,
who learned to survive, who learned to survive,
the one who gave life, and carved the map of pain.

Chorus:
I forgive, but I will never forget,
I forgive, I forgive,
but I will never forget.
The scars you bore me shape who I am,
each time you choose yourself over me still.
I forgive, I forgive,
but I will never forget.

Now I walk through memory like a ritual,
lighting shadows, naming wounds,
naming wounds, naming wounds,
knowing I am whole not because of you,
but because of the child you made me,
who watches, who knows, who laments,
who laments, who laments, who laments,
singing sorrow and suspicion into the world,
singing sorrow, singing suspicion,
singing truth as my hymn.

Chorus:
I forgive, but I will never forget,
I forgive, I forgive,
but I will never forget.
The scars you bore me shape who I am,
each time you choose yourself over me still.
I forgive, I forgive,
but I will never forget.
