lyrics

It was you, you doltish, coltish thing
The hero of the story
In your mouth a pair of lucky cords
crafted to sing his glory

(Saul, Saul, Saul x2)

It was you who saw the ships to shore
singing the stormy sea
You who turned them all aside
to walk the riverbeds with me

(Saul, Saul, Saul x2)

You came to me in tears, my friend,
you asked ‘what should I do?’
You had no words for all the people
who had hung their hopes on you

(Saul, Saul, Saul x2)

I told you that your gift was yours
I said it was enough
You can’t pour from an empty cup
Your eyes were red, your hands were rough

(Saul, Saul, Saul x2)

Neither of us would sleep at night:
you’d wake us with your thrashing
All your dreams were full of people
tugging on your clothes, chanting:

(Saul, Saul, Saul x2)

Well, I knew I had to free you,
so I wore my blackest glove
They’ll call it a betrayal,
but it was an act of love

(Saul, Saul, Saul x2)

And when the snakebite came at last,
both of us were relieved
I’d spent too many moonless nights
wearing you on my sleeve

(Saul, Saul, Saul x2)

Well, I don’t know where you found the gall
To look so damn surprised
I will not change the ending
I can only swap the words around

(Saul, Saul, Saul x2)

And while I tell it, you are trapped
A snow-globe groom inside it all
Until the end of fucking time,
until my final petal falls, it’s

(Saul, Saul, Saul x4)
