The Litany Lyrics

"pray, boy, pray," she whispered in my ear

with a poison needle aimed right at my fears

as the words of the Litany relieved me

i realized it was I who had decieved me

no fable, no fiction

ever made it easy

i will not fear. fear is the mind killer

i will allow it to pass over me.

when it's gone, only I will remain.

and when she asked me

to tell her of my dreams

she did so only

to decieve

i felt your Gom Jabar

but from mine there's no reprive

i learned the way of the knife

and the cutting will be a relief

i will not fear. fear is the mind killer

i will allow it to pass over me.

when it's gone, only I will remain
