Mann, Aimee - 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

    Weird—I posted the second part, but the board seems to have eaten it. Another try:

    (chorus 2) 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 // (chorus 2)

    @Eamon Doyle don't worry, and thank you so much by the way!

    (1/2) Downtown, Trinity Church / What's one penitent more? / While she was left in the lurch / He was washing ashore // (chorus 1) 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 //
