Erase

he who has ears to hear, let him hear...

Was it truly possible to wipe the slate clean
To scrub through the remains of what has been?

I'm told you can take this wretched filth of my sin
And make it white as snow
I'd rather you erase the memories that haven't let go

For a moment could we please forget
You've always loved me, though I've failed every attempt
To live up... to that

Erase the memories of who I've been
The broken melody that I sing
Erase the images that are no longer me
Revive the conviction that you're all I need
Restore the hope to be all you see
Erase me

Were the walls all that was holding me back
When you unshackled the chains, did I even know?

I'm told you can take this shattered heart of stone
And make it beautiful
I'd rather you erase the realities that keep taking hold

For a moment, can we please forget
You'll always love me
Though I walk away without looking back

Erase the memories of who I've been
The broken melodies that I sing
Erase the images that are no longer me
Revive the conviction that You're all I need
Restore the hope to be all you see
Erase me

For a moment, I see no regret
and you love me
With grace that overwhelms
All i lack
Take the memories of who I've been, Heal the broken melodies, let them sing. Break the images i no longer seek. Revive the passion, for you're all i need. Restore the hope to be all you see
Erase me
