Lyrics:

Come to me Etty in June
Bring your sorrow and your solitude
Smoking on the balcony
Talking of the elegies

Of the angels they do terrify me
Come to me, Etty
Come to me, Etty

They won’t tell you nothing
But be faithful, be frightened
I remember circling the top of your head
You covered each morning

And I knew all about praying
I showed it to you when I was seven
For the camera you held, I sang my blessing
For the TV, a child’s confession

Didn’t ask for this
You just do what you can
Now they say they saw your face
Over the Vatican

And the songs I sung were for you
Long before our love began
Because I was fed the bread of affliction
That was fed by a hair’s breadth close to extinction
That was fed at a checkpoint in Bethlehem
That is fed in the east of Jerusalem
That is fed to the whole congregation
That is fed by a growing inertia
That is fed to a kid on a camera

The angels they do terrify me
Come to me, Etty
Come to me, Etty
