Forget And Not Slow Down

How many times can I push it aside?
Is it time I befriended all the ghosts of all the things that haunt me most,
So they leave me alone.
Move on with my life.
Be certain the steps of left to right don't fight the direction of upright.

I'd rather forget and not slow down.
Than gather regret for things I can't change now.
If I become what I can't accept,
Resurrect the saint from within the wretch.
Poor over me and wash my hands of it.

It's time to decide
which is out of my mind.
'Cause it'll be me unless I put some thoughts to rest and leave some faults behind.
I'll watch the glint in my eye,
shine off the spring in my step.
And it could be blinding depending on the amount of You that I reflect.

'Cause I could spend my life just trying to sift through what I could've done better
but what good do what ifs do?
Oh, oh,
Oh, oh.
There's something I should tell you now.

I'd rather forget and not slow down
Than gather regret for things I can't change now.
If I become what I can't accept,
resurrect the saint from within the wretch.
Pour over me and wash my hands of it.
