Lyrics:
I'm truly sorry, for what I never did
But I forgive you, too; for your indifference
You were a lonely child, laid open to the world
And when I looked in your eyes, I saw myself there too
So please forgive me now, for what we never had
Although it's useless to say - I wish you happiness
I wish you happiness, I wish you happiness
Ha-happiness
Opening track of the live album ‘Swans are Dead’, this piece was played in Amsterdam on 1997. It does not appear on any other Swans or Michael Gira related project as a studio version.
