Unforgivable
Plumb's song "Unforgivable" is a raw and emotional plea from someone who has experienced deep pain and neglect, possibly from a parent. The lyrics express feelings of being unloved, ashamed, and alone, while also acknowledging the struggle to feel brave and courageous. The chorus contrasts God's promises of provision and peace with the singer's current reality of fear, hunger, and cloudy skies. Yet, the song turns toward hope and forgiveness, affirming that nothing is unforgivable or unable to be set free. It speaks to the healing power of God's grace and the journey toward self-acceptance and release from past wounds.
I'm never told that I am pretty
I'm never told that I am kind
And my soul burns now with fire
Deep inside
I want to become brave and courageous
Not buried in self-pity of my own
Ashamed and alone from all
That's been done to me
It's not my fault I remind myself
[Chorus:]
You say don't be afraid
But I feel afraid
You say don't laugh or cry
But I show emotion
You say food will be on the table
And birds in the sky
But I'm hungry
So hungry
And it's cloudy outside
You never loved me like a daughter
You never even loved yourself
And now you treat me like a burden
Just another object on your shelf
I want you to know now that I love you
And this pain that I carry's not my own
Ashamed and alone
From all that's been done to you
It's not you fault
I remind myself
[Repeat Chorus]
No matter what I've done
Or is done to me
Nothing's unforgivable
Or unable to be set free.
[Repeat Chorus Twice]
