Pray For Me Lyrics

Pray For Me lyrics

It's strange all the ways

We suffer everything in trade

Like the trails we impose to disappear



Find I've strayed from the course of least resistance

Losing sight of the prize like a faint and distant scar

Forced it down with the rest

Of the bitterness and humility not less

Than the air we simply breathe and sterilize



Say a prayer for me I'm still haunted and so starved

Separated from my sins I'm too tired to forgive

Say it's everything I've lost and I'll believe each word

Spare the silence we defend and criticize



Now too many names unlock the serpentine escape

Like the bombs we project in severed lines

Break my faith in the will

Blood torn from innocence we kill

Every single time we hear a siren on the air



Now as hopelessness surrounds me

I stand torn just like a child of war

The lie inside bitter and commanding

We face the world with nothing but our breath

The fires rage the static boils

The broken words the shattered page

A children's lie a starving soul

From hand to mouth assume control



I'm not the one to bear this pain

And share the sin yet still refrain

In token words and spoken lies

We spit inside your pious eyes
