I Said A Prayer For You Today

from Spin by Word Travels Fast

/

lyrics

"The power of Christ compels me but I don’t know what that means.
I’ve lived for a hundred years but I swear i’ve never felt a thing.
Tangible animal. New ethics for a cannibal.
I'll change you like I changed my mind.
Flower petals never gave me time.

Darling healer.
With wings so deep.
Put your arms around me.
Put disbelief asleep.
You always knew me.
You touched my hand.
You lead me to a place of which I cannot understand.

How many people feel what I feel?
A hundred different options with zero appeal
To leave the house. To try to breathe.
Yes, the world’s an apple but i’m no longer the seed.

Try my heart. Try my eyes.
I’m too weak to believe in what I cannot see.
Give me power in my arms. Give me power in my thighs.
Talk me out of where I feel nothing.
The soldier in your head is not the child within your actions.
I’ve been fooled and yeah, i’ll fold but my true north can’t find satisfaction.
Nevertheless, I feel your chest, I taste you in my gums.
I know you’re not the ghost but the bullet in my gun.

How many people feel what I feel?
A hundred different options with zero appeal
To leave the house. To try to breathe.
Yes, the world’s an apple but i’m no longer the seed.

I said a prayer for you today.
And know God must have heard.
I felt the answer in my heart.
Although he spoke no word.
And I shall dwell in the house of the lord for years to come.
And I shall dwell in the house of the lord for years to come.”
