Mea Culpa Lyrics
Downtown, Trinity Church
What`s one penitent more?
While she was left in the lurch
He was washing ashore
And it`s true, you could tell her everything
She never wanted to know
Let her shoot, let her have her massacre
Blood dripping down in the snow
Ring on, Liberty Bell
That`s affixed to the prow
Neptune`s watery hell
Lives inside of you now
And it`s true, you could tell her everything
She never wanted to know
Let her shoot, let her have her massacre
Blood dripping down, leaving trails in the snow
She left offerings I
Didn`t want at my door
Two birds baked in a pie
What a grim metaphor
And you spill and confess and you clean up the mess, `cause
That`s how you atone

But when it`s "Bless me, Father," then I suspect
She`ll never leave you alone
And it`s true, you could tell her everything
She never wanted to know
Let her shoot, let her have her massacre
Blood dripping down, leaving trails in the snow
