Darla Farmer - The Apology lyrics

We have sung so righteously Since the day we stole away And dreamed Of what our plight would be On these blooming days What will be denied By the riches From which we have derived By the dreams we won't negate And since the count cannot subside Will you negotiate? I can't eat off your plate If I haven't paid The price of your estate But will I go unfed Avoid what has become innate When i see no offered bread What did I expect There's no desired effect Now I am subjected To my proposed direction I did not flee I am not blind I just untied My tongue from the line You cannot hold What you cannot find So I yield before The undefined design I try to get Above myself Only to greet My indolent wealth While I strain for The bottom shelf My anima falls Under failing health If the stone does turn If the moon turns red I will inject myself Myself with regret The sky will split Where I cannot tread And I will remain To fulfill my debt And if that day Does finally come And I am not a part of the sun Then i will plead Unworldly pardoning If I deserved Empyreal Sympathy
