I've got a plan
and it's waiting for you
forgiveness gives and it can take two
all I need is a couple of knees
if I had none I'd still get the job done

chorus forgiveness

I've seen the mighty with chips used for wings
they're way too heavy to truly love anything
I just can't earn it
I know I never will

chorus
forgiveness

is this really you holding me
is this really you holding me
for now, forever, forgiveness

shall I try to wallow for a while
shall I hurt with the thing I can not swallow
shall I fight it with a menacing demise
no, I can not save this life

chorus
forgiveness
