Songs With A Deeper Meaning 1

What I've Done - Linkin Park
In this farewell
There's no blood
There's no alibi
Cause I've drawn regret
From the truth
Of a thousand lies
So let mercy come
And wash away

Chorus:
What I've done
I'll face myself
To cross out what I've become
Erase myself
And let go of what I've done

Put to rest
What you thought of me
While I clean this slate
With the hands
Of uncertainty
So let mercy come
And wash away

(Chorus)

I start again
And whatever pain may come
Today this ends
I'm forgiving what I've done
I'll face myself
To cross out what I've become
Erase myself
And let go of what I've done
What I've done
Forgiving what I've done


Have we ever said this to ourselves?
Even when we have wronged someone so?
Simply put, we don't let go of our past failures. We let them consume us from deep inside. We let our sins eat us alive.
All the regrets, all the lies, all our sins - it's so hard to let them go.
Even if it's going to hurt us a lot, even if others will look at us differently, so what?
Let's give ourselves another chance, cause God's already forgiven us, mercy has already fallen upon us 2000 years ago. We just have to repent and forgive ourselves for our faults and failures.

I'll Face Myself
And Erase My Old Self
And Let Go Of What I've Done
