Atonement Songtext
von Goodbye to Gravity
Atonement Songtext
Felt it coming
The only choice was forgive and forget
And I found comfort
In that it hasn′t happened yet
Something inside me was calling
But all I could see was a threat
Cause I was sure it would cost me
Another lifetime to repent
For taking my time to find atonement
Taking my time to feel the moment
Taking the time to shun an omen
For taking in all my time
I started running
I wasn't gonna just stand there and wait
For the changes that were sure to dissipate
I figured, why should I risk it?
I don′t wanna venture and I don't wanna gain
Instead of making the choices
I'd rather be left with silence again
For taking my time to find atonement
Taking my time to feel the moment
Taking the time to shun an omen
For taking in all my time
For taking the time to feed a promise
Taking my time to pay an homage
Taking the time to grieve the solace
For taking in all of my time
The only choice was forgive and forget
And I found comfort
In that it hasn′t happened yet
Something inside me was calling
But all I could see was a threat
Cause I was sure it would cost me
Another lifetime to repent
For taking my time to find atonement
Taking my time to feel the moment
Taking the time to shun an omen
For taking in all my time
I started running
I wasn't gonna just stand there and wait
For the changes that were sure to dissipate
I figured, why should I risk it?
I don′t wanna venture and I don't wanna gain
Instead of making the choices
I'd rather be left with silence again
For taking my time to find atonement
Taking my time to feel the moment
Taking the time to shun an omen
For taking in all my time
For taking the time to feed a promise
Taking my time to pay an homage
Taking the time to grieve the solace
For taking in all of my time
