Forget And Not Slow Down Lyrics

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 and right
don't fight the direction of upright

I'd rather forget and not slow down
Than gather regret for the 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

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 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 the 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
Pour over me and wash my hands

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
oh oh
oh oh
There's something I should tell you now

I'd rather forget and not slow down
Than gather regret for what I can't change now
If I become what I cannot accept
Resurrect the saint within the wretch

I'd rather forget and not slow down
Than gather regret for the things I can't change now
If I become what I can't accept
Resurrect the saint from within the wretch

I'd rather forget and not slow down
Than gather regret for what I can't change now
If I become what I cannot accept
Resurrect, resurrect

Pour over me and wash my hands
Pour over me and wash my hands
of it
