Benediction - The Weakerthans[00:00:06]
So you don't get to be a saint[00:00:23]
Martyrs never last this long[00:00:28]
Guess I'll never be the one to defeat[00:00:33]
Desire in song[00:00:39]
Here's a marker here's my naked skin[00:00:43]
Our exhibit a[00:00:49]
Put a small x where I lost my way[00:00:53]
All the actors broke their legs[00:01:02]
And it's too late to postpone[00:01:07]
The producer's getting high[00:01:12]
And the audience went home[00:01:17]
Smile and take your awkward bow[00:01:22]
Turn and stumble off the stage[00:01:27]
Let the rain be your applause[00:01:32]
Every encore soothe your rage[00:01:37]
Squint with one eye hum a show tune[00:01:41]
And wait for your ride to say[00:01:45]
Oh that's where you must have lost[00:01:51]
Your way[00:01:55]
Megaphones in helicopters squeal[00:02:21]
Hey are you okay[00:02:27]
As searchlights circle where[00:02:31]
We lost our way[00:02:33]
All our accidents went purposeful and fell[00:02:41]
Stripped of providence or any way to tell[00:02:50]
That our intentions[00:03:00]
Were intangible and sweet[00:03:03]
Sick with simple math and shy discoveries[00:03:10]
Piled up against our impending defeat[00:03:17]
