My eyes seek reality My fingers seek my veins There's a dog at your back step He must come in from the rain I fall 'cause I let go The net below has rot away So my eyes seek reality And my fingers seek my veins
The trash fire is warm But nowhere safe from the storm And I can't bear to see What I've let me be So wicked and worn
So as I write to you Of what is done and to do Maybe you'll understand And won't cry for this man 'cause low man is due
Please forgive me
My eyes seek reality My fingers feel for faith Touch clean with a dirty hand I touched the clean to the waste
The trash fire is warm But nowhere safe from the storm And I can't bear to see What I've let me be So wicked and worn
So as I write to you, yeah Of what is done and to do, yeah Maybe you'll understand And won't cry for this man 'cause low man is due
Please forgive me Please forgive me Please forgive me
So low the sky is all I see All I want from you is forgive me So you bring this poor dog in from the rain Though he just wants right back out again
And I cry to the alleyway Confess all to the rain But I lie, lie straight to the mirror The one I've broken to match my face
The trash fire is warm But nowhere safe from the storm And I can't bear to see What I've let me be So wicked and worn
So as I write to you, yeah Of what is done and to do, yeah Maybe you'll understand And won't cry for this man 'cause low man is due
Please forgive me Please forgive me
So low the sky is all I see All I want from you is forgive me So you bring this poor dog in from the rain Though he just wants right back out again
