Goatsnake

Prayer For A Dying

Goatsnake


Oh the light it comes a creep 
And the night it leaves 
It's the end of the dawn 

Come the morning bury me 
Keep my candles 
A burn into the dawn 

Da blues and city shits 
Open the door let's it in 
Destroys my faculties 
Blinds me to my knee 

As the darkness covers me 
I begin to dream 
Of visions that I long 

Yeah you got to rock the roll 
Set your fancies 
A chance yet to be free again 

In my system running strong 
Shinning sins and setting suns 
On my back like a hounding bitch dog 

Lay in the shadows and pray for a dying 

I reach for the arms 
But I can't catch my faith 
I land on the floor and crawl 
On my skin 

Lay in the shadows and pray for a dying.
