The Wrote and the Writ

Wed Oct 21, 2009, 4:51 PM
More good music >3> This is "The Wrote & the Writ" by Johnny Flynn. It tells an interesting story about a man and his wife (at least that's how I interpret it). And if you take the last stanza out of context, it is quite valid amongst internet users: Be careful about what you say to others on the internet; text without speech tends to be more severe than if you were to talk to someone in person C:
-


They're taking pictures of the man from God
I hope his cassock's clean
The burden of being our holy fellas
Your halo'd better gleam, better gleam.

What of all those wayward priests?
The ones who like to drink
Do you suppose they'd swap their blood for wine
Like you swapped yours for ink, for ink.

You wrote me oh so many letters
And all of them seemed true
Promises look good on paper
Especially from you, from you.

The weight of all those willing words
I carried all alone
You wouldn't put your pen to bed
When we hadn't found our own, our own.

Your sentences rose high at night
And circled round my head
The circle's since been broken
Like the priest before me is breaking bread.

I'm being asked to drink the blood of Christ
And soon I'll eat his flesh
I'm alone again before the altar
Shedding all my old regrets;

The last of which I'll tell you now
As it flies down the sink
I never knew a part of you
You didn't set in ink, in ink.

The letters that you left behind
No longer shall I read
Your blood's between the pages
And I can't stand to see you bleed.

And I'll soon forget what was never there
Your words are ash and dust
All that's left is the song I've sung
The breath I've taken and the one I must.

If you're born with a love for the wrote and the writ
People of letters your warning stands clear
Pay heed to your heart and not to your wit
Don't say in a letter what you can't in my ear.
