dedicated to mama and papa

lyrics

when did this bruise appear,
all burgundy and violet?
do i need rose-tinted violence
to mark all my limbs?

walk me down to the churchyard
as the clock tower strikes nine
oh holy father hold me close
as i mourn the loss of time

ah, he says you are but a child
ah, he says i’m but a lamb
ah, he says you are but a child
to be lost and be born again.

don’t look so gloomy my dear
the wicks and the wax are dripping with prayer
though we can not see the magic and faith
we can still wish you well out there

ah, he says you are but a child
ah, he says i’m but a lamb
ah, he says you are but a child
to be lost and be born again.
