I've been living my life like it's a prayer

Wondering if there is someone out there

Who's listening

Are you listening

Are you listening

I remember feeling lonely

Like the world had something it owed me

 I let all my fears control me

Till my body refused to hold me

I am not a stranger to the dark

I have lived a life afraid of my own heart

When it weighed me down and I swore I'd drown again

Now all I do is pray when I'm alone

For a better world that feels like home

For every heart and every soul

The deepest love we've ever known

 I'm suspending the daydreams till I know what they mean, a dose of reality's been coming my way

I'm addicted to repeats of all the same stories with nothing to say

I could rewrite it over and over

And bring the past a little bit closer

 I feel like I'm wiser now that I'm older

So I take that weight the fuck off my shoulders

I am not a stranger to the dark

I have lived a life afraid of my own heart

But I don't think twice now

I let it all out

And all I do is pray when I'm alone

For a better world that feels like home

For every heart and every soul

The deepest love we've ever known

I will pray for love for all

I will pray for peace through all the wars

I pray for a world that is free

For everything our hearts will ever need

I am not a stranger to the dark

I have lived a life afraid of my own heart

When it weighed me down and I swore I'd drown again

Now all I do is pray when I'm alone

For a better world that feels like home

For every heart and every soul

The deepest love we've ever known
