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      He's so sorry he can't feel remorse   He 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       He's so sorry he can't feel remorse   He tries to keep the helpless ship on course   The blameless sky pales as a storm comes   Taking it by force   He's so sorry      And he's so sorry he can't feel remorse   He tries to keep the helpless ship on course   The blameless sky pales as a storm comes   Taking it by force   He's so sorry
