Be That As It May

I’ve grown up in a broken city
I’ve seen chain,
but I don’t want pity
Maybe I’m too young to be demanding
I have tried, and I have failed
To bear the cross, piercing nails
Forgive me please,
oh please
Be understanding
'Cause I’ll not forget the love you gave
But be that as it may
Every night I pray
For brighter stars, more golden days
And to be taken far away
Be that as it may
I know it’s wrong for me to stay
I cannot bear these shades of grey
So now I’m on my way
Be that as it may
I will not forget the love you gave
