cowalker - the fisher king lyrics
i’m drawing a blank
hail mary, full of grace, don’t let me hang
please, please, please, tell me it ends
i’m negative enough as it is
i can almost see it now…
we’d lay down, metaphorically:
we’d lay down our lives
and some symbolic breeze
would blow in through the trees
and seraphim would scream our favorite songs
some say i have a gift
because the bullsh-t flows like fine wine
poured from my lips to yours
and so you raise a gl-ss
and drink up, drink up
drink it all, you little lush
not everything you touch can turn to gold
we’re not all worth that much
“o, wounded king!” your servants sing
“let the rapture come!
till the sweet release of death
place your crown upon our heads!”
like spinster wives, they weave their lies
and you’re veiled in them
shed like cancered skin
remembered on your knees
take your time, god knows you wanted it
so he delivered it in spades
and you p-ssed it all away
we’re buried by the plans laid out in front of us
but we forge ahead
say our places changed
and all your plans were turned away
would you still worship me?
would you still believe?
if i could, i’d go out like a light
i can’t help it if i feel my life slipping away
with every single word i write
there’s no light to shed
but oh, mary pray for us as we forge ahead
