Prospect

Wandering through prospect cemetery Couldn't be further from home Reading the headstones like poetry Nobody wants to die unknown Never got to meet my grandfather Nobody told me where he lays It's a trip how someone you never knew Can be buried in your DNA I just want to live Like someone before my time is counting on me, Ooo-ooo-ooo-oooh And walk beneath the wings Like someone from another life is looking out for me Ooo-ooo-ooo-oooh If I told you that I sat with angels Would you listen or laugh at me? It's the only reason I give a damn And wrestle with this apathy It's a fight against a slight existence When you're trying to make sense of time 'Cause forever is a lonely moment But I see forever in my children's eyes I just want to live Like someone before my time is counting on me Ooo-ooo-ooo-oooh And walk beneath the wings Like someone from another life is looking out for me Ooo-ooo-ooo-oooh Looking out for me, Ohhh Looking out for me, I-I-I Looking out for me, Ohhh Looking out for me, I-I-I I just want to live Like someone before my time is counting on me, Ooo-ooo-ooo-oooh And walk beneath the wings Like someone from another life is looking out for me Ooo-ooo-ooo-oooh I just want to live Like someone before my time is counting on me, Ooo-ooo-ooo-oooh And walk beneath the wings Like someone from another life is looking out for me Ooo-ooo-ooo-oooh Wandering through prospect cemetery Trying to find where I belong Kicking the dust realizing That nobody wants to live alone
