letra de tattoos - callan holder

you’re still lighting candles
at st. boniface for me
i leave my change at aglais
if i’m in another town
doesn’t it seem like thirteen years is long enough
in a place where the bones keep coming up
with no binding sigil left to hold them down?

how many more elections and wars
til we forgive each other?
how many second without a shot
until we’re out of the foxhole?
i was first in the wind
i wonder if you even remember
i think the detectives havе hunches
and a witness or two is gonna roll

i’ve got a friеnd back home who gives me updates
on the other kids who got out relatively unharmed
most of them got into god real heavy
but my favorites have ‘hail satan’ tattooed on their forearms

when the camp burned last winter the cops came and asked for a statement
they asked where i was and if i minded unlocking my phone
and i hated that photo you took at the driller in tulsa
but it sure came in handy when they asked if i went there alone
when we pass second baptist
throw black roses from the car
send condolences
fill in the blanks with the dead
throw the oil on the fruits of our labors
did we ask the wrong god for a favor?
clean water, and a few minutes’ break
in the bloodshed
