Purgatory Lyrics - Innamorata - Pat Benatar

We will be the forgotten ones 

they will shake their heads and pity us 

we who sacrificed our sons and daughters 

with the sweet taste of victory on our lips 

They will cry, but their tears will come too late 

There is no redemption for the ones 

who choose to walk in the shadows 

Oh sweet redeemer 

will you save a place for me 

I am tired and I'm seeking restitution 

Oh will you heal me 

will you take away my pain 

what I'm looking for is absolution

Getting out of purgatory is no small accomplishment 

and the price is high 

and it comes with it's own set of conditions 

The choice is never clear 

and difficult to make 

But it will not change them 

they will just go on the way they always have 

Oh sweet redeemer 

will you save a place for me 

I am tired and I'm seeking restitution 

Oh will you heal me 

will you take away my pain 

What I'm looking for is absolution
