Lyrics
0:46New blood joins this Earth
0:49And quickly he's subdued
0:53Through constant pained disgrace
0:56The young boy learns their rules
0:59With time the child draws in
1:03This whipping boy done wrong
1:06Deprived of all his thoughts
1:09The young man struggles on and on he's known
1:15A vow unto his own
1:18That never from this day
1:21His will they'll take away
1:27What I've felt what I've known
1:30Never shined through in what I've shown
1:34Never be never see
1:38Won't see what might have been
1:41What I've felt what I've known
1:44Never shined through in what I've shown
1:47Never free never me
1:51So I dub thee Unforgiven
1:59They dedicate their lives
2:03To running all of his
2:06He tries to please them all
2:09This bitter man he is
2:13Throughout his life the same
2:16He's battled constantly
2:19This fight he cannot win
2:23A tired man they see no longer cares
2:28The old man then prepares
2:31To die regretfully
2:34That old man here is me
2:41What I've felt what I've known
2:44Never shined through in what I've shown
2:47Never be never see
2:51Won't see what might have been
2:54What I've felt what I've known
2:57Never shined through in what I've shown
3:01Never free never me
3:04So I dub thee Unforgiven
3:45What I've felt what I've known
4:21Never shined through in what I've shown
4:24Never be never see
4:28Won't see what might have been
4:31What I've felt what I've known
4:34Never shined through in what I've shown
4:37Never free never me
4:41So I dub thee Unforgiven woah
4:51Never free never me
4:54So I dub thee Unforgiven
5:03You labeled me I'll label you
5:07So I dub thee Unforgiven
5:17Ah never free never me
5:21So I dub thee Unforgiven
5:30You labeled me I'll label you
5:34So I dub thee Unforgiven
5:35Never free never me
5:36So I dub thee Unforgiven
New blood joins this Earth And quickly he's subdued Through constant pained disgrace The young boy learns their rules With time the child draws in This whipping 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 away What I've felt what I've known Never shined through in 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 in 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 cannot 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 in 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 in what I've shown Never free never me So I dub thee Unforgiven What I've felt what I've known Never shined through in 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 in what I've shown Never free never me So I dub thee Unforgiven woah Never free never me So I dub thee Unforgiven You labeled me I'll label you So I dub thee Unforgiven Ah 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
