Feels like I'm miles from here in other towns With lesser names where lonely ghost doesn't tell Merry old William exactly what they want to hear You remember the house that we drew Told you and the devil to both just leave me alone If this is salvation I can show you the trembling You'll just have to trust me I'm scared
I am the patron saint of lost causes Aren't we all to you just near lost causes Are we all to you just lost?
Tell me you're left behind Something you'll mean everything right before you die But if you gain the world You've already lost four little souls from your life Widows and orphans are hard to find Their home is in daddy who's saving you random tonight Where's your drink? And would hurry and kill you Sympathy's better than having to tell you the truth
That you are the patron saint of lost causes All you are to them is now a lost cause All you are to them is now causes
Billy, don't you understand? Timothy stood as long as he could You made his faith disappear More like a magician And less like a man of the cloth We're not questioning God Just those he chose to carry on his cause We'll grow better, you'll see Just all of us, the lost causes
Aren't we all to you just lost causes? Aren't we all to you lost? Lost causes Aren't we all to you Is all we are, is all we are What we are is all we are
