Mea Culpa Lyrics

Mea Culpa lyrics

Was he with you at the railway?

Did he cradle all your pain?

Did he show to you the best way

To make it all right again?



Now there was reason in your madness

You weighed your loss against my gain

If he was with you at the railway

Would you do it all again?



Mea culpa

I can't stay here no longer

Oh mea, mea culpa

My time here is up

So goodbye, goodbye and good luck



Was he with you on that journey

When you could have still turned back?

Did he reason with you sternly?

Did he try to make your resolve crack?



Did he hold the only candle

When your whole bright sky turned black?

Was he with you at the railway?

As you climbed onto the track?



Mea culpa

I can't stay here no longer

Oh mea, mea culpa

My time here is up

So goodbye, goodbye and good luck



Did he guide you across the threshold?

Did he cup you in his hands?

Did he drink you down like water?

Or blow you into air like sand?



Is he standing right beside you?

Did it work out how you planned?

Is the sunlight shining on you?

Are we saved or are we damned?



Mea culpa

I can't stay here no longer

Oh mea, mea culpa

My time here is up

So goodbye, goodbye, goodbye and good luck
