Again, I Pray

Sleeping in sorrow’s lullaby...can’t lie Sweet slumber is only tomorrow’s cry Can’t deny, I prayed a thousand times I can only try to make up these rhymes Again, I pray away the past pain Again, I pray away the shy rain That drizzles in lonely vibes of you, you, you That truly dangles in my curls of brownish blue The shameless sky of red I pray it sheds away the dread I pray it sheds away the dread Again, I pray for better days I pray I won’t fall prey to you nowadays and girl, I’m speechless again My heart is shattered in pieces and you do as you please I’m torn apart at the seams I’m closer to falling apart, yet my heart’s at ease, at ease I’m torn apart by bad dreams Again, I pray for better days I pray in many, many ways and boy, does this mourning inside remain Holding my breath from on high...I fly I surrender in your arms, awake and dry Can’t deny, I prayed countless times I can only try to make up these rhymes Again, I pray away the past pain Again, I pray away the shy rain That drizzles in lonely vibes of you, you, you That truly dangles in my curls of brownish blue The shameless sky of red I pray it sheds away the dread I pray it sheds away the dread Again, I pray for better days I pray I won’t fall prey to you nowadays and girl, I’m speechless again My heart is shattered in pieces and you do as you please I’m torn apart at the seams I’m closer to falling apart, yet my heart’s at ease, at ease I’m torn apart by bad dreams Again, I pray for better days I pray in many, many ways and boy, does this mourning inside remain Broken and I need a mend or two Unspoken like poetic morning dew Soaking up the grime of our lives, of our lives Our youth is as painful as a thousand knives We have fallen into the darkness...into the deep We have fallen to our knees Prayed away the pain and yet, we still weep You and I need love please Again, I pray away the past pain Again, I pray away the shy rain That drizzles in lonely vibes of you, you, you That truly dangles in my curls of brownish blue The shameless sky of red I pray it sheds away the dread I pray it sheds away the dread Again, I pray for better days I pray I won’t fall prey to you nowadays and girl, I’m speechless again My heart is shattered in pieces and you do as you please I’m torn apart at the seams I’m closer to falling apart, yet my heart’s at ease, at ease I’m torn apart by bad dreams Again, I pray for better days I pray in many, many ways and boy, does this mourning inside remain Missing you in despair Our spirits are in the air Dare to wonder where I’ve been? Again, I pray you understand and then You’ll know where my airplane lands We will be together again in good hands Our spirits are in the ground Without a single sound... We are captivity-bound, Longing to be free Praying once more for relief Again, I pray freely, Yet, I prey upon your lonely grief Again, I pray away the past pain Again, I pray away the shy rain That drizzles in lonely vibes of you, you, you That truly dangles in my curls of brownish blue The shameless sky of red I pray you take flight with wings of desire - go ahead! I pray it shreds away your lonely grief instead... Lost in the stillness of your prayers Found in the shadows of our yesteryears Lost in the weeds of faults and errors Bound in the river of your wretched tears Lost in the seas of endearment that never injures A long lost soul like mine...again, I pray for a divine sign Lost in the wilderness of our years of cheers so fine Again, I pray away the past pain Again, I pray away the shy rain That drizzles in lonely vibes of you, you, you That truly dangles in my curls of brownish blue The shameless sky of red I pray it sheds away the dread I pray it sheds away the dread Lost and found in the tides and floods of prayer time I’m not scared to lose control, alone in space without you, looking like a silly fool Lost and found in the prides and humilities of our prime Again, I pray to be prepared for the worst in this life of a burning, churning whirlpool Again, nowadays, I pray for better days
