Persistent Vision Songtext
von Rites of Spring

I was the champion of forgive forget
But I haven′t found a way
To forgive you yet
And though I know you and I are through
All my thoughts are lines converging in on you

I wish sometimes, the mind were blind

I see - What must be seen
To feel - What can't be real
To know - What′s done is done - it goes on and on


I am the victim of a persistent vision
It tracks me down with it's precision
And though I know you're not in my eyes
I can′t seem to clear you from my mind

I wish sometimes, the mind were blind

I see - What must be seen
To feel - What can′t be real
To know - What's done is done - goes on and on

Help me. I can′t see at all.

I was the champion of forgive forget
But I haven't a way to forgive you yet
And though I know you′re not in my eyes
I can't clear persistent vision
