Tekst piosenki Saint Dymphna

Back when I was living in the Quarter
You had just moved in with Trouble's daughter
I was insisting that I loved you better than her
All of the rhymes that I committed
I left them to lie in the sun for a minute
I couldn't bear to be a sinner in your sweet name

What do you mean by that?
Do you mean to break my heart?
Do you mean to break my heart in two?

Down on the cobblestones where I found you
Way out on Rampart by Toulouse
Come on upstairs, I'll tell you my story, I'll sing you my song
You know that the cold ground was my bed last night

Blanket of clouds, stars for my nightlight
All that I had was a pocketful of prayers and unanswered dreams

What do you mean by that?
Do you mean to break my heart?
Do you mean to break my heart in two?

I'm calling on Dymphna to heal and protect us
Remember your sisters down in this world below
I been in the trenches and I'm here to tell you it's a hard row to hoe
Most of my heroes died in the gutter
Johnson and Foster, MacTell, and Hurston
I follow them down and ride with the current that's pulling me home

What do you mean by that?
Do you mean to break my heart?
Do you mean to break my heart in two?
