lyrics

I was injured in battle, cannonball straight to the knee. My leg healed crooked, so somebody break it again for me.
I felt confused about women and God's love. I tried to just think about nothing at all, to not think about make-believe.
I lost imagination and traded my town for the speed and the rope and the beads and trying to learn what it means.
I gave up talking to people for so long I forgot how to teach; and I gave up the sins of the flesh but found more in the wheat.
I forgot to tell father about them. He said, "boy there's really no need." But I still feel guilty; so if not for you, then, for me.
I got home before midnight on Saturday for the first time in weeks; and I tried to say anything, tried to explain, it all just came out like a weathered and slow.

I took my sword to the mountain, left it at the black virgin's feet; and I cried out to her every day six years counting. I'm hoping she's weeping for me. And I took long learning the mysteries, took long learning the creed. Probably take long getting to heaven cause I hardly ever make myself bleed.

Can you believe how they found her? Alone in the cave in the trees. Then they carried her up Montserrat with the stones and the priests.
I think that I would have left her there for someone else to make the same memory; maybe I should be more willing to share and look up for once from my stubborn and slow.
