Praying hard

Turning off the light upon the west
Raise another toast among the rest
And time will tell
We'll wait and see, wait and see
Years go by and take what they want
Leaving me with what I really needed all along
Days arrive there's nowhere to hide
I'm catching on to how the rival never sleeps
(I can tell by the hours they keep)

Praying hard

Lost some precious coins along the way
Words that never saw the light of day
Oh tears of time
You live in me, live in me
Years go by and take what they want
Leaving me with what I really needed all along
And it's no time to be alone
Drifting carelessly toward endless sleep
(And I think I can feel the fire beneath the street)

Years go by and take what they want
Leaving me with what I really needed all along
Sometimes it hurts my eyes to see
And then again, the path of suffering is always bittersweet
('Cause there's a light unto my feet)

Praying hard
