Ignorance Lyrics by Stephen Shutters

Ephemeral

2017

[Verse 1]
I know you once existed
But you never truly lived
At least, not how I'd wish it
Your body torn limb from limb
And I think you half-consisted
Of myself beneath your skin
But now all of me is twisted
Was my ignorance a sin

Either way, I did you in

[Chorus]
If I had known, I would have fought
But you weren’t mine, or so I thought
My part was through, but now so are you
What fucking hell did I put you through

[Verse 2]
I know your heart once beat and
I wish I could have heard
The rhythm of your laughter
Felt the passion in you burn
I think you would agree that
This world ain't just black and white
But I killed you with the greys and
The dark's all I see tonight

Now I’m searching for the light

[Chorus]
If I had known, I would have fought
But you weren't mine, or so I thought
My part was through, but now so are you
What fucking hell did I put you

If I had known, I would have fought
But you weren't mine, or so I thought
My part was through, but so are you
What fucking hell did I put you

If I had known, I would have fought
But you weren't mine, or so I thought
My part was through, but now so are you
What fucking hell did I put you through

Did I put you through

[Verse 3]
And I hope you're up there waiting
For the day when I get there too
Where you'll shower me with grace and
Show me a love I never knew
By then, you'll have a Father
But I hope you'll call me Friend
This song’s all I have to offer
Please don’t let this be the end

[Tag]
Please don't be the end
Please don’t be the end
Please don't be
Please don't be
