Lyrics
FORGIVE (sanden)
i am letting you off
though i’ve been burned
when i look upon your human face
i choose not to frown again
a prospero level of love
though in no way do i forget
i forgive you again
anyone who loves someone
will forgive everything
because who do you want to be?
i choose not to frown again

Demitasse (pronounced “DEHmee-toss”) is a two piece acoustic group. It is the side project for Erik Sanden and Joe Reyes of the Texas art rock band Buttercup. Mixing melody, spoken word, and noise, the sound is somewhere between Simon and Garfunkel, Leonard Cohen, and the Beach Boys on a dark day. Or Elliott Smith on an extremely bright, sunny day. Or John Cale tossing his car keys to Neil Young.
