julien baker – the modern leper lyrics
[verse 1]
a cripple walks amongst you
all you tired human beings
he’s got all the things a cripple has not
two working arms and legs
and vital parts fall from his system
and dissolve in scottish rain
but vitally, he doesn’t miss them
he’s too f-cked up to care
[chorus]
well is that you in front of me?
coming back for even more of exactly the same
you must be a m-s-ch-st
to love a modern leper on his last leg, on his last leg
[verse 2]
well i crippled your heart a hundred times
and still can’t work out why
you see, i’ve got this disease
i can’t shake and i’m just rattling through life
well this is how we do things now
this is how the modern stay scared
so i cut out all the good stuff
i cut off my foot to spite my leg
[chorus]
well is that you in front of me?
coming back for even more of exactly the same
you must be a m-s-ch-st
to love a modern leper on his last leg
well i am ill but i’m not dead
and i don’t know which of those i prefer
because that limb which i have lost
well it was the only thing holding me up, holding me up
[bridge]
well i’m lying on the ground now
and you’re walking through the only door
well i have lost my eyesight like i said i would
but i still know
[chorus]
that that is you in front of me
and you are back for even more of exactly the same
well are you a m-s-ch-st?
you love a modern leper on his last leg
and you’re not ill and i’m not dead
doesn’t that make us the perfect pair?
you should sit with me and we’ll start again
and you can tell me all about what you did today
what you did today
