letra de xiii - words of wit

i don’t really say sh-t
i just hold my tongue and pray that i won’t pay for it
later, when she was fighting a war with the angels of god
her sword and shield made of facts and reason and she never
ever
thought she’d get to that point, where philosophy was a part of me
st. augustine where are thee? i don’t see you but i see that he
isn’t there for me; no one’s dead yet but i’ve got x triple i written on my feet
it says here that death is coming, i got the card
i got the call on a friday, blue light and i’m sobbing nah
nah ma, he ain’t dead, he can’t be
sixteen years old and i never thought i’d write a eulogy
but half the time now i just write my own because i know no one’s that lucky
to cheat it, it’s coming
he wears a suit of armor
crushing kings and commoners

and i don’t really say sh-t
i just let it boil inside and pray to god that i don’t get hit
by a car, when i’m walking to cl-ss
on derne street and temple and i pray to god i last
long enough, to find a man with a ring
and ten dollars for tiffany’s and a silver-winged love
like the love i had for jesus

let me live long enough to see what he does
at the altar, when i meet him with my vows
i’m having trouble with belief but please help me now
i want a baby, i want to care for my own
don’t visit me until she’s beautiful and grown

it says here that death is coming, i got the card
19 miles deep and it’s still not that far
down the road, a long way to go
give me shelter and let the warm winds blow

i never know how to say sh-t
when they all get the call, it’s not mine
but there’s sincerity in my awkwardness, i promise
if i had the words i’d send them to you
i’m sorry, my sympathies
are pale and auto-reply isn’t how i feel
is the way to respond, i’m sure that beyond
all the pain there’s relief

i’m having trouble with belief
that there’s something after death
he’s the last act
there aren’t encores or repeats
we can’t cheat, my nails are back to black
because i can’t get over it
