I will not kneel again
On my knees
At the side of the bed
I pray to you while I bow my head
The fighting will stop
No more dead
But nobody answers because it's all in their head
They said give you money
So no one would starve
But hunger doesn't care about the words on a prayer card
You turned me away
Because I won't follow your lead
So now I know better than to get down on my knees
