Prayer

Waking life
Watching myself from a distance
Grown from you
Endless imperfection
I stumble on my words
Spilled out to you

Scenes spill in
Scenes spill out
And still I'm left
With one I can't forget

And it's here I'm left to remember you

So what
I didn't need you anyway
If I pretend
This'll make it all okay
So what I didn't need you anyway
If I pretend
This'll make it all okay

If only I could rise again
After such a long, bitter sleep
If only I could dream again
After all that I have seen

If I follow all the footsteps of
The echoes of the past
Will I ever know the truth
That's made me who I am?

Whispered once
The loudest scream of all
The failing voice
Forgot to speak
When it mattered most of all

So what
I didn't need you anyway
If I pretend
This'll make it all okay
So what I didn't need you anyway
If I pretend
This'll make it all okay
