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 right away
So my eyes seek reality
And my fingers seek my veins

     The trash fire is warm
     Nowhere's safe from the storm
     And I can't bare to see
     What I've let me be
     So wicked and worn

     So as I write to you
     What is dawning 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 flame
Touch clean with a dirty hand
I touched the clean to the waste

     The trash fire is warm
     Nowhere's safe from the storm
     I can't bare to see
     What I've let me be
     So wicked and worn

     So as I write to you, yeah
     What is dawning 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 alley way
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's safe from the storm
     And I can't bare 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

My eyes seek reality
My fingers seek my veins
