Pulling the trigger, a shot would fire,
Then he'd wake to red lips above him, smeared with scorn and stale restraint,
She covered him with pity, like a snake about to strike,
And then pronounced him hopeless when he wouldn't do as she would like.
And he's so sorry he can't feel remorse,
Tries to keep the helpless ship on course,
The blameless sky pales as a storm comes, taking it by force,
He's so sorry.
Flashes of justice, after all she'd done for him,
For the first time, she was quiet as he touched her moon pale skin,
They found him hours later, he was talking to the gun,
Saying, "Father please forgive her, she has killed her only son."
And he's so sorry he can't feel remorse,
Tries to keep the helpless ship on course,
The blameless sky pales as a storm comes, taking it by force,
And he's so sorry.
So, so, sorry,
That he can't feel remorse.
And he's so sorry he can't feel remorse,
Tries to keep the helpless ship on course,
The blameless sky pales as a storm comes, taking it by force,
And he's so sorry.
