Laurie Anderson & Kronos Quartet Lyrics

"The Nineteen Stars Of Heaven"

And when you say 'lie', do you mean the kid of lie that Lincoln told? When he was talking to the soldiers, who were leaving for the front?

About how they'd be just fine. And they'd be home by spring. Walking and alive. Or do you mean some other kind of lie?

The nineteen stars of Heaven. Matched by what they stood for. Constancy. Gullibility. And sorrow
