Vocals

The harsh vocals fit the style of music well. The singing part I didn't like as much, but maybe it was just the change wasn't so welcome for me. I think it is a change in many respects from the rest of the song. The music changes at that part, as well as the direction of the lyrics. Things sound more positive for a while. After hearing it a few times, I have began to appreciate it more.

Music

The first half worked, but I just didn't need the solo. I know I am weird, but sometimes they feel like they interrupt the momentum. 

Lyrics

I think this is a hard reality that there are things to learn in life. We make stupid mistakes, we let things happen, don't think it out, don't know our worth.

Naivety of the past so sick
Of being abused

Forgiving is not forgetting

I wholeheartedly agree with this. Forgiving isn't forgetting. I don't think we are capable of forgetting many things. Then there are others that we forget without trying. I think it can be a coping mechanism.

My revenge boils inside
Though I try to oppress it but
I cannot deny my newborn freedom

It is really hard to get over some things. I personally believe in forgiving, but some things creep back into my mind and I literally have a physical reaction. I get hot and sweat, have a little panic attack. These things are hard.
