New blood joins this earth
  and quikly he's subdued 
  through constant pain 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 the unforgiven
 
  you labeled me
  I'll label you 
  so I dub the unforgiven
