Lies Like Prayers Lyrics
I can't think of when you promised me
Lies like prayers just float away
And I believe my heart
Was in your hands of strain
So you could find the weakest vein
And I wish I didn't see
The hole that held your knife
In falling rain and falling ice
My wish just couldn't be
I know I told you please do away with me
There's a million reasons why
Then you waited years 'til I began to drown
For your chance to push my head down
There's so many sweet beginnings lost
Because the end's so hard to forget
Even though I planned you'd take it all away
But you did have to use that cliche
Lies like prayers just float away
And I believe my heart
Was in your hands of strain
So you could find the weakest vein
And I wish I didn't see
The hole that held your knife
In falling rain and falling ice
My wish just couldn't be
I know I told you please do away with me
There's a million reasons why
Then you waited years 'til I began to drown
For your chance to push my head down
There's so many sweet beginnings lost
Because the end's so hard to forget
Even though I planned you'd take it all away
But you did have to use that cliche
