A Prayer

from Unto the Waste Land by mrmoth

/

lyrics

If the sense of your worth
Was divided at birth
Come with me
Come with me
If you answer to fear
Like its all you can hear
Come with me
Come with me
If the words in your mouth
Just will not come out
Come with me
Come with me
If the things that you dream
Make you wake up and scream
Come with me
Come with me

On a wing and a prayer
We are packing and leaving today
On a wing and a prayer
We are clearly unwelcome to stay

If all that you give
Is the most you can be
Then all that you're taking
Takes you further from me
So hard to stand by
And watch you slipping away
How do you cheer for the runner
That's throwing the race?

If your finest hour's
Gone sweet into sour
Come with me
Come with me
If the strong and assured
Leave you so insecure
Come with me
Come with me
If the things that you see
Make you break down and weep
Come with me
Come with me
If it's all you can stand then
Give me your hand
Come with me
Come with me

On a wing and a prayer
We are packing and leaving today
On a wing and a prayer
We're clearly unwelcome to stay

And you have to admit
That your time's almost up
Your chances are few now
To refill the cup
You're clinging so tight
To that which you hate
And it never gets better
Each day that you wait
These tears that you cry
What are they really all for
When you betray the loving
That you shove out the door?
Will you do for yourself?
Will you stand up and walk?
Can you follow it through
Or just continue to talk?
