[00:22.43] | Feels like you're miles from here, |
[00:25.13] | in other towns with lesser names. |
[00:28.89] | Where the unholy ghost doesn't tell |
[00:33.37] | Mary or William exactly what they want to hear. |
[00:38.15] | You remember the house on Ridge Road |
[00:41.37] | told you and the Devil to both just leave me alone. |
[00:45.71] | If this is salvation, I can show you the trembling. |
[00:51.63] | You'll just have to trust me. I'm scared. |
[00:54.97] | I'am the patron saint of lost causes. |
[01:01.73] | Aren't we all to you just near lost causes? |
[01:09.93] | Aren't we all to you just lost |
[01:15.14] | Tommy, you left behind something that will mean everything right before you die. Tommy, |
[01:23.30] | What if you gained the whole world? |
[01:26.30] | You've already lost four little souls from your life. |
[01:30.22] | Widows and orphans aren't hard to find. |
[01:33.90] | There home missing daddy who's saving the abandoned tonight. |
[01:38.18] | Wish your drinking would hurry and kill you. |
[01:42.13] | Sympathy's better than having to tell you the truth. |
[01:47.74] | That you are the patron saint of lost causes. |
[01:54.31] | All you are to them is now a lost cause. |
[02:02.47] | All you are to them is now, causes. |
[02:07.88] | Billy, don't you understand? Billy, |
[02:10.53] | Timothy stood as long as he could and now |
[02:15.61] | you made his faith disappear. |
[02:19.00] | More like a magician and less like a man of the cloth. |
[02:22.80] | We're not questioning God. |
[02:26.39] | Just those he chose to carry on His cross. |
[02:30.85] | We're no better, you'll see. |
[02:34.50] | Just all of us, the lost causes. |
[02:42.96] | Aren't we all to you just lost causes? |
[02:50.91] | Are we all to you lost? |
[03:02.62] | Lost causes |
[03:07.50] | So all we are to you |
[03:11.27] | Is all we are, is all we are |
[03:15.43] | All we are is all we are |
[03:26.61][Choir:] | |
[03:44.88] | Patron Saint, are we all lost like you? |
[03:51.73] | Patron Saint, are we all lost like you? |
[03:59.86] | Patron Saint, are we all lost like you? |
[04:07.75] | Patron Saint, are we all lost like you? |
[04:16.19] | Patron Saint, are we all lost like you? |
[04:23.89] | Patron Saint, are we all lost like you? |
[04:57.46] | Patron Saint, are we all lost like you? |
[05:04.62] | Patron Saint, are we all lost like you? |
[05:12.68] | Patron Saint, are we all lost like you? |
[06:45.18] | Take what you will, what you will |
[06:49.34] | And leave. Could you kill, could you kill me |
[06:55.26] | If the world was on fire |
[06:59.25] | and nothing was left but hope or desire |
[07:02.58] | And take all that I could bring forth, is this hell |
[07:08.70] | Or am I on the floor over-desperate? |
[07:13.70] | Hold hands streaming of blood again? |
[07:19.94] | And then take full weight of me |
[07:25.86] | Guard my dreams, figure this out, |
[07:31.14] | It's me on my own. Helpless, hurting, hell |
[07:37.58] | Will you stay strong as you promised? |
[07:44.44] | Cause I'm stranded and bare. |
[07:46.73] | Meanness is washed up in all that I am |
[07:51.60] | is God. Take this and all, |
[07:52.90] | Then grace takes me to a place |
[08:00.97] | Of the father you never had |
[08:04.90] | Ripping and breaking and tearing apart |
[08:08.80] | This is not heaven |
[08:11.86] | This is my hell. |
