Prayer By Default
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Another dream that will never come true
just to compliment your sorrow
Another life that I've taken from you
a gift to add to your pain and suffering
Another truth you can never believe
has crippled you completely
All the cries you're beginning to hear
trapped in your mind, and the sound is deafening
Let me elighten you
This is the way I pray
[Chorus]
Living just isn't hard enough
Burn me alive, inside
Living my life's not hard enough
Take everything away
Another nightmare about to come true
will manifest tomorrow
Another love that I've taken from you
lost in time, on the edge of suffering
Another taste of the evil I breed
will level you completely
Bring to life everything that you fear
live in the dark, and the world is threatening
Let me enlighten you
This is the way I pray
[Chorus]
Return to me (x4)
Leave me no one
Turn to me
Return to me (x3)
Cast aside
Return to me (x4)
leave me no one
Return to me (x3)
You've made me turn away
Living just isn't hard enough
Burn me alive, inside
Living my life's not hard enough
They take everything from you
[chorus]
