The Weakerthans
What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
So you don't get to be a saint
2
Martyrs never last this long
3
Guess I'll never be the one to defeat desire in song
4
Here's a marker, here's my naked skin, our Exhibit A
5
Put a small x where I lost my way
6
All the actors broke their legs
7
And it's too late to postpone
8
The producer's getting high
9
And the audience went home
10
Smile and take your awkward bow
11
Turn and stumble off the stage
12
Let the rain be your applause
13
Every encore soothe your rage
14
Squint with one eye, hum a show-tune
15
And wait for your ride to say
16
"Oh, that's where you must have lost your way"
17
Megaphones in helicopters squeal, "Hey, are you okay?"
18
As searchlights circle where we lost our way
19
All our accidents went purposeful and fell
20
Stripped of providence or any way to tell
21
That our intentions were intangible and sweet
22
Sick with simple math and shy discoveries
23
Piled up against our impending defeat
