Erin McKeown – Litany For A Minor Character Lyrics

Artist: Erin McKeown
Song: Litany For A Minor Character

For you who never lied to me
For you who began with buyer beware to me
Lord hear our prayer
For you my conspirator

You who only you knew my nom de guerre
Call me by my secret cares
Lord hear our prayer
For the pair of us, walking, arms twist tight

Seaside nights in that gay town square
For you who broke my heart before I was aware
I swear
But there you were so rare

With your blue eyes and blonde hair
Lord hear our prayer
For before second best was too much to bear
Rearranging deck chairs on that sinking bedstead

For when I was finally awake did I dare
Lord hear our prayer
For the blankness of your stare
For how I couldn’t get beneath some layer

Scared me shitless that I could care this much
Lord hear our prayer
For all that millionaire solitaire laissez fair
This price of repair

For all the writers who f#cked me
Thinking they’d write something they’d get lucky
For me, the first to strike, now does it feel fair?
Lord hear our prayer

For the world is a wheel
For the wheel is a world
A wheel in a world in the middle of the air
Lord hear our prayer

For all this mess this blessing will you grant us
For all this struggle
All this
For someone so brief a narrator

Mercy for that minor character
Lord I send this prayer
Lord I send this prayer
Lord I send this prayer

Lord hear our prayer
