New blood joins this earth,
And quickly he's subdued.
Through constant pain disgrace,
The young boy learns their rules.
With time the child draws in.
this wipping boy done wrong.
deprived of all his thoughts,
the young man struggles on and on he's known.
a vow unto his own,
that never from this day
his will they'll take awayay
what i've felt
what i've known
never shined through and what i've shown
never be
never see
won't see what might have been
what i've felt
what i've known
never shined through and what i've shown
never free
never me
so i dub thee unforgiven
they dedicate their lives
to running all of his
he tries to please them all
this bitter man he is.
throughout his life the same
he's battled constantly
this fight he can not win
a tired man they see no longer cares
the old man then prepares
to die regretfully
that old man here is me
what i've felt
what i've known
never shined through and what i've shown
never be
never see
won't see what might have been
what i've felt
what i've known
never shined through and what i've shown
never free
never me
so i dub thee unforgiven
you labeled me
i'll label you
so i dub thee unforgiven
never free
never me
so i dub thee unforgiven
you labeled me
i'll label you
so i dub thee unforgiven
