Lyrics

-BROKEN VOICE PRAYERS-

Weeping now, like a child
In the house, of desire
Walls that bleed, walls that scream
In this dark, twisted dream
Black crows soar, across the sky
They can leave, why can't I?
Clouds that dance, upon the moon
Hope that I'll, be there soon
I still pray, in a broken voice
Like I did, as a boy
Yeh I - never thought
I'd return to this place
Can't erase, the vows that I made

Years old words, calling loud
Letters wrote, still true now
All the things, I thought I knew
Now empty streets,
thoughts walk through
I still fight, the myths and lies
Like I did, as a child
Yeh I - thought this all was over
The darkness returns to me,
like a lover

Voices raise, as the sun goes down
Swirling winds, brush the ground
Church of the soul, home of pain
In this field, my heart remains
Yeh I - never wanted to live, like me
There were times,
I prayed that you would set me free
Yeh I - thought this all was over
The darkness returns to me,
like a lover
