You ask for forgiveness
For being untrue
Suffer in silence
Is all that I do
Thought you were an angel
High as a cloud
Your ladder shining
Squalid and proud
Now all that we have
Is buried in blue
You ask for forgiveness
I can't give it to you
You ask for forgiveness
Your cry for relief
Had every intention
Of keeping it brief
Now wither and wry
In her chain of fools
You can't ask for forgiveness
And make up the rules
Now all that we had
Is buried in blue
You ask for forgiveness
I wont give it to you
