Do You Pray

Do you pray?

Do you fall

On your knees when everything goes wrong?

Go back to the word

In the good book you heard

That will save you a place somewhere.

Do you sing

From your soul

When you feel that calm before the storm?

Bleed out your throat

Or sound just like a bird

When she wakes from the light of first morne.

Brother don't doubt everything, we don't even have that power.

Sister don't heed the battles we breed, upon those waking hours.

I wanna dance like nobody's watching, and sing like nobody cares.

Climb to the top of those mountains we see, to find peace, and die up there.

Do you work?

Do you slave?

Breaking your back every day

Whether for food, or whether for pay

Or just for your baby's sake?

Do you die?

Belly up and cry

When you feel like there's nothing worth trying

Down on your luck

and hopeless for fate

Those tables will turn one day.

Brother don't doubt everything, we don't even have that power.

Sister don't heed the battles we breed, upon those waking hours.

I wanna dance like nobody's watching, and sing like nobody cares.

Climb to the top of those mountains we see, to find peace, and die up there
