Lyrics of
The Prayers We Light

tab
verse 1
Where will you go
when your wandering lust has left you
and all you've known in life
are travelling troubadors?
Where will you fall
when your legs lose their courage?
You can't bear the thought
of another long and winding road
What'll you do
when you've got to say you're sorry
but it's so hard
and you don't know where to begin?
How will you feel
when you're lying on the train tracks
and you don't know if what you hear
is a whistle or the wind?
Pre-Chorus
All the prayers we light
asking for another shot at life
all the lines we crossed
fighting for a long lost cause
But I'll never apologise
for secrets hidden in my eyes
praying for a desperate muse
fighting for the ones who'll never
make it through
verse 2-
Think real hard
are you happy with your memories?
Satisfied with who you know yourself to be?
Who do you see
when you gaze at your reflection?
Are you seeing who you really want to see?
Pre-Chorus
All the prayers we light
asking for another shot at life
all the lines we crossed
fighting for a long lost cause
But I'll never apologise
for secrets hidden in my eyes
praying for a desperate muse
fighting for the ones who'll never
make it through
verse 3-
Who will save you
when you're lying in the gutter?
The only hymns you know are songs on the radio.
Who'll you think of
when you're wide awake at midnight
and all you've ever learned from life was how to live alone?
Pre-Chorus
All the prayers we light
asking for another shot at life
all the lines we crossed
fighting for a long lost cause
But I'll never apologise
for secrets hidden in my eyes
praying for a desperate muse
fighting for the ones who'll never
make it through
