prayer

A prayer for the living
Not one for the dead
Safe in paradise
Or laughing instead


A prayer for the living
Not too much to ask
For those with no sun
Or those on the run

For those who have pity
To those who have none
The poor little lost soul
The millionaire’s son
For those who know truth
But keep getting it wrong

To hear a voice, a voice for them


A prayer for the living, Lord
To show us you care
About us as well as
Those no longer here


For those who have pity
To those who have none
The poor little lost soul
The millionaire’s son
For those who know truth
But keep getting it wrong
To hear a voice, a voice for them

For those growing old
But no longer wise
Daydreamers
The widow who cries
For those out of breath
After all of their sighs
To hear a voice, a voice for them

A prayer for the living
A prayer for the small
A thought for the dead
But a prayer for us all

rise and fall

He's so vain
Unsophisticated
No shame
He was asking for it

He never saw it coming
He never heard a call
He never got a warning
The rise
The fall

She was there
She was witness to it
It was rare
She had an instinct for it


She never saw it coming
She never got a call
She never heard a warning
The rise
The fall


Looking over our shoulders
Sleeping with one eye open
We rise and fall
Rise and fall

We’re so frail
And we all mess up
We're in pain
Then we turn to dust

We never see it coming
We never get a call
We never hear a warning
The rise
The fall

Looking over our shoulders
Sleeping with one eye open
We rise and fall
Rise and fall

blood

Blood is thicker than water
Or so they tell me
I wouldn’t know
Life just happens to me
Because I let it
Just watch it flow

Millie’s got a secret
But her Daddy don’t know
And her Mama won't tell him
'Til Millie starts to show

Jamie had it all
Yeah he was doing fine
Took his brother’s life when they had a fight
Now he’s doing time

Blood is thicker than water
Or so they tell me
I wouldn’t know
I go where life takes me
Because I want to
I just let it flow

Mary is a fox
Oh she looks so fine
And all the while her husband’s out
She shakes her thing online

Maggie’s got a son
He’s an all out thug
She prays all the time for his long lost soul
She’ll never give him up

Truth is stranger than fiction
And it can set you free
Good guys still come second
People lie and cheat
We weren’t all born yesterday
The strong still crush the meek
And what you’re told in confidence
Is just too good to keep

Blood is thicker than water
Or so they tell me
I wouldn’t know
Life just happens to me
Because I let it
Just watch it flow

miss that train

And if I miss that train again
If I miss that train again
It would be the end

It’s Sunday night
We’ve said goodbye
I’m too choked to speak
My eyes burn
The tears will fall
I feel so weak

And if I miss that train again
If I miss that train again
It would be the end

You had to go
You had to leave
But I was too scared
I’ve got my job
Routine and bills
All the things that chain you

And if I miss that train again
If I miss that train again
It would be the end

My mind is torn
I’m so divided
It’s a thorn
In my side
Got my ticket
And I’ve got your letters
But do I have the courage?

And if I miss that train again
If I miss that train again
If I miss that train again
If I miss that train again
It would be
It would be
It would be the end
