All I pray, now I know you hear my heart
No fear of losing face
No need to say, if I didn't write it out
For the world to read or sing
As if damnation could negate purity or fate
All I pray is, since you've been so clearly
Cooing me with broken silence
Standing beside me in the dark
All I pray is, on my high horse
All I pray is, let them be forever with you
Even if it costs me, what it cost you
Then take me too
Take me too
One step closer to your prayer
A single thought away from truth
So candles line this broken time
The dancers with their naked breasts
The sorrow souls who feast on d**h
The devil's rage alive in money
O so – heavy – now
With such a breathless glow
Happy hordes of discontent
The last laugh mongrels
Grave lament, in solemn, shiny blue
Then take me too
Take me too
One step closer to your prayer
A single thought away from truth
So we work to save our souls
And we die to live our lives
The clichés are never ending
But if the night were not so cold and gray
If you were not cloaked in such an earnest yearning
When the Breaker himself is broken
By what we think we are within
The cross-fire carriage charging
High upon the hills of Who Hates Who
Then take me too
Take me too
One step closer to your prayer
A single thought away from truth
Don't ask too much, the human touch
Could drown you in such an all consuming
Chaos, and that chaos could be home
If only you knew how to reach
The self that will surely grow – in time –
Then touch him there
And stroke her hair
Or wait it out, religiously
The final plea or first real laugh
Yeah dipsh**, give up all you have!
Of course it's what you must do
Then take me too
Take me too
One step closer to your prayer
(Yes, I'll meet you there)
After we proudly overshoot the truth
I pray, o how I pray
A thousand hellish worlds fall down on you
