A Lonely Prayer

Sitting on the porch I am wondering what is there for me
What this life gives to me.
Singing of the birds I wish I could be so free-minded
Like those in the sky
Is it wastage for me to be a lonely prayer
What's there to gain
Human greed says to me get a life now
No reason for a lonely prayer
Now I really see maybe true ignorance is bliss
to know nothing
"Hey you there" - don't wanna know, can't you see this
burden in my back.
Leave me alone!
Is it wastage for me to be a lonely prayer
What's there to gain
Human greed says to me get a life now
No reason for a lonely prayer
