Author/Artist/Singer: Weakerthans, The
Music Title/Track: Benediction
Theme ID: 4956
Album: N/A


so you don?t get to be a saint

martyrs never last this long

guess I'll never be the one

to defeat desire in song



here's a marker

here's my naked skin

our exhibit A

put a small x where I lost my way



all the actors broke their legs

and its too late postpone

the producers getting high

and the audience went home

smile and take your awkward bow

turn and stumble off the stage

let the rain be your applause

every encore sooth your rage



squint with one eye on the show tune

wait for your ride to say

oh that?s where you must have lost your way



make a phone tune, helicopters squeal

hey are you ok

search lights circle where we lost our way



all our accidents went purposeful and fell

stripped of providence or any way to tell

our intentions were intangible and sweet

stick with simple math and shy discoveries

piled up against our impending defeat
